The Invisible Problem: When Application Performance Hurts the Bottom Line
In the world of modern software and microservices, an application being “up” is simply not enough. Today’s users demand speed, reliability, and a flawless experience. The real challenge for technical teams lies in the vast, complex, and often invisible nature of distributed systems.
When a customer clicks a button and gets a slow response, or an error occurs deep within a service mesh, how do you find the root cause in minutes, not hours? This lack of full-stack visibility—the inability to see performance issues, slow database queries, or transaction errors before they impact the user—is the problem that costs businesses millions in lost revenue and customer trust.
The solution is mastering Application Performance Management (APM), and the tool of choice for many of the world’s leading enterprises is New Relic.
The Master in New Relic Training from DevOpsSchool is designed to equip you with the specialized expertise to use New Relic’s full feature set. This certification will transform you from someone who reacts to alerts into a proactive Observability Specialist who guarantees application health and optimal user experience.
About the Course: Dive Deep into New Relic APM
This focused, 15-hour training program provides an accelerated, practical journey into the world of New Relic. Conducted through instructor-led, live, and interactive sessions, the course goes beyond introductory guides to cover both the core concepts and advanced techniques required for efficient Application Performance Monitoring (APM).
The curriculum is structured around a real-time scenario-based project, ensuring that every concept is immediately applied. You will not only learn the New Relic architecture and terminology but also gain hands-on experience by installing and configuring APM agents for various application types (Java, PHP, .NET, Docker-based).
Key Course Modules and Focus Areas:
The training meticulously covers the entire lifecycle of application monitoring and troubleshooting:
- New Relic Fundamentals: Understanding APM, New Relic Architecture, Terminology, and the critical role of transaction traces.
- Installation and Configuration: Hands-on lab work installing and configuring APM Agents for different tech stacks and containerized environments.
