New Relic integration

What is New Relic?

New Relic is a cloud-based platform that provides application performance monitoring, infrastructure monitoring, and analytics solutions. One of its features is Deployment Tracking, which allows you to monitor the impact of your recent releases on the app’s speed and efficiency.

By integrating the service with Buddy you can update your New Relic profile with deployment data on every pipeline run. Apart from that, by using the New Relic CLI action you can run commands and operations in the service directly from your pipelines.
