All your telemetry data from any source in one place
#1about 6 minutes
Understanding the core components of monitoring
Monitoring relies on three key pillars: metrics for performance data, dashboards for visualization, and alerts for proactive notifications.
#2about 3 minutes
Getting started with Prometheus and Grafana for monitoring
Prometheus provides a simple server solution for scraping and storing time-series metrics, which can then be visualized using Grafana dashboards.
#3about 6 minutes
Moving from basic monitoring to full system observability
Modern complex systems require moving beyond just metrics to observability, which incorporates events, logs, and traces to understand system behavior and connect it to business KPIs.
#4about 6 minutes
Overcoming observability challenges with a unified platform
A unified, open telemetry platform helps solve common observability challenges like data silos, tool sprawl, and scalability by centralizing all data types in one place.
#5about 7 minutes
Integrating Prometheus using the remote write API
Use the Prometheus remote_write API to forward metric data to a centralized telemetry platform, allowing you to leverage its scale while keeping existing Grafana dashboards.
#6about 47 minutes
Hands-on lab for configuring Prometheus remote write
Follow a step-by-step lab to configure the Prometheus remote_write setting in a Kubernetes environment to send metrics to the New Relic platform.
#7about 21 minutes
Building custom dashboards by querying data with NRQL
Learn to use the SQL-like New Relic Query Language (NRQL) to explore different event types and build custom, interactive dashboards from your telemetry data.
#8about 8 minutes
Creating proactive alerts using NRQL queries
Use NRQL queries to define alert conditions and static thresholds, enabling you to get proactively notified when key performance indicators are breached.
#9about 13 minutes
Exploring platform benefits and further learning resources
Review the benefits of a SaaS telemetry platform, including its free tier, and discover additional resources like New Relic University to continue your learning journey.
