APM New Relic Integration
- Pralav Dessai
Kloudfuse platform has the ability to ingest span and trace data sent by New Relic agents/SDK. The setup steps vary based on programming language used.
Common configuration
To point the New Relic agent / SDK to cloudfuse, the following environment variable needs to be set:
NEW_RELIC_HOST=<domain for Kloudfuse ingesterion, eg. pisco.kloudfuse.io>By default, the SDK connects to Kloudfuse ingest endpoint over https.
Note: Kloudfuse supports ingestion of APM data - spans and traces from New Relic agents. Other data payloads are not currently supported. Some agents send additional payloads (eg. metrics, logs) and these may have to be disabled in case errors are seen on the agent side logs.
Language specific configuration
New Relic agents behave differently for some languages, and additional configuration steps are needed
Language | Steps |
|---|---|
Golang | Following code change is needed to pick environment variable over default configuration newrelic.NewApplication(
newrelic.ConfigFromEnvironment(),
...
) |
PHP | The PHP agent does not support NEW_RELIC_HOST environment variable. Instead set the newrelic.daemon.collector_host value in newrelic.ini |
Python / Javascript / NodeJS / Ruby | Works with environment variable setup described above. |
