New Relic One user-access

Learn about the New Relic One application performance monitoring (APM) service for AEM as a Cloud Service and how you can access it.

About New Relic One introduction

Adobe places a great emphasis on the monitoring, availability, and performance of your application. AEM as a Cloud Service includes access to New Relic One monitoring, giving teams comprehensive visibility into system and environment performance metrics as part of the standard product offering.

This article outlines how to manage access to New Relic One application performance monitoring (APM) features in AEM as a Cloud Service environments. Effective management of these features supports optimal performance and maximizes the benefits of AEM as a Cloud Service.

When a new production program is created, the New Relic One sub-account associated with your AEM as a Cloud Service Program is automatically created. This sub-account must be activated to begin ingesting data.

Features transaction-monitoring

New Relic One APM for AEM as a Cloud Service has many features.

  • Direct access to a dedicated New Relic One account.

  • Instrumented New Relic One APM agent that shows exact method calls with line numbers, including external dependencies and databases.

  • Holistic performance optimization by combining key metrics from infrastructure-level monitoring and application (Adobe Experience Manager) monitoring.

  • Automatic change trackers for Cloud Manager pipeline executions, AEM upgrades and Code Restore operations. These trackers let teams correlate deployments with application performance changes directly in New Relic One.

Activate your New Relic One sub-account activate-sub-account

For a newly created program, a New Relic One sub-account is created for you. However, you must activate it for it to ingest data. This activation is not automatic. Follow these steps to activate your sub-account.

Use change tracker change-tracker

Cloud Manager automatically sends change trackers to New Relic One whenever supported pipeline executions, AEM upgrades and Code Restore are complete. These trackers appear as change events in New Relic’s Change Tracking view, letting your team correlate deployments with shifts in application performance, error rates, and throughput.

Supported pipelines and workflows supported-pipelines

The following Cloud Manager pipelines and the last two workflow types generate change trackers in New Relic One:

Pipeline/Workflow type
Description
Full-stack (CI_CD deploy)
Full-stack pipeline executions. The trace includes the pipeline name and execution ID.
Web tier config
Web tier configuration pipeline executions. The trace includes the pipeline name and execution ID.
Front-end
Front-end pipeline executions. The trace includes the pipeline name and execution ID.
