AWS Batch vs. New Relic

More appropriate if you have a tech group that can use more of the AWS Batch rather than one or 2 things. It works great for me, but there was a huge learning curve the first week of using it. Now, I love it - and I hope to dig deep into other parts not just S3.

New Relic its an excellent tool for monitoring services used on the SAAS universe, like web servers, relational and nosql dbms, reverse proxies, text databases, etc. Its also a powerful tool to monitor resource usage on said servers. However, its not well fitted to monitor custom services - if you need to generate alerts based on logs or database information, for example

• Easy to orchestrate and trigger jobs
• No time limit issues like lambda
• Multiple Jobs can be run in same single compute and job queue
• JOb queue can queue up task for parralled or serialization

Incentivized

• It gives us insights of applications, infrastructure, clouds very well.
• The alerting system in New Relic helps us to easily identify the root cause which reduces the MTTR.
• It has new features related to AI which helps to troubleshoot any problem in a very short time it gives future predictions also.

• Jobs monitoring dashboards are not matured
• Documentation and support is something which can be improved
• Sometime i faced the slow response or slow in performance i would say

• And while powerful, building tailored dashboards with organ-specific metrics (such as energy load variance across regions) can be difficult to navigate. The UI isn't as drag-and-drop easy, and query-based widgets typically involve some trial and error for non-devs.
• Alerts may be hypersensitive or over general. I We often get a spam of non-critical alerts while doing load testing, all overhauling to me alone and making it difficult to identify actual issues especially in energy systems where spikes are very common.
• With our expanding fleet of Iot devices, the per-host pricing model is becoming expensive, quickly. More detailed billing based on microservices, or that works at sensor level, would make it more adaptable for energy platforms.

The only issue that we have had with New Relic is that the price might be a little expensive for smaller companies. The amount of data you store in New Relic impacts the cost, and can get away from you if you don't work closely with the vendor. Overall though the application is top notch.

Key advantages include cost-effectiveness through dynamic resource provisioning and the use of spot instances. It auto-scales to meet workload demands, allowing easy job submission via the AWS Management Console or SDKs. It integrates seamlessly with other services like S3 and CloudWatch. It features automatic retries for failed jobs. It allows for a custom computing environment tailored to specific needs

I have given this much rating as I am used New Relic in different sectors and for different use cases like its K8s monitoring, infra monitoring, full stack monitoring as compare to other tools New Relic gives data in a formatted and connected way, and also it is giving us value for money. It also launches new features day by day which helps users to track the issue very quickly. It also supports OTel integrations which is the latest trend of observability tools. thats why I had given this much rating to New Relic.

The support team has been really helpful and resolved most of the issues on time. However, for a couple of issues, several follow-ups were needed to elicit a reasonable response. The issue was deeply technical and could have been investigated only by their Architects, and bringing them into the ticket took longer than needed

It's better to start by implementing New Relic in one project and test everything. Try to follow best recommended practices and read all the official documentation. Everything seems well tested. Then, start by installing agents to the rest of your projects and keep a close look to all logs and metrics New Relic gives you.

We wanted to start everything on a scale & with fewer resources to manage the underlying infrastructure.

Data Dog has solutions that look more attractive, but not at their price point. We have also tried to build a solution straight from the Cloud, where our business is built, but some things are too hard to replicate. This shows that New Relic is useful and helps our efficiency.

Agent deployment is easily integrated into our workflow. Adding the agent to new servers is quick and painless

Incentivized

• Overall over business is able to save the cost
• Saved our times to improve the existing process
• Able to integrate with other applications as well, so that is plus point

Incentivized

• We were able to quickly identify our most time consuming APIs. In some cases we were able to bring down times for some apis from 4s to 200ms.
• We were able to identify our slowest database queries and optimize them for quicker response times.
