New Relic offers various integrations for reporting data to our platform. One category of integrations is our Infrastructure integrations.

Types of infrastructure integrations
New Relic has two main categories of infrastructure integrations: cloud and on-host.
Cloud integrations
Cloud integrations collect data from cloud services and accounts. There's no installation process for cloud integrations, you simply connect your New Relic account to your cloud provider account.
Integrations | Description |
---|---|
Connect your Amazon Web Services (AWS) account to monitor and report data to New Relic. See the list of AWS integrations. | |
Connect your Microsoft Azure account to monitor and report data to New Relic. See the list of Azure integrations. | |
Connect your Google Cloud Platform (GCP) account to monitor and report data to New Relic. See the list of GCP integrations. |
On-host integrations
On-host integrations are what we call integrations that you can run directly on your host or server. They typically connect to core services in your servers:
Integrations | Description |
---|---|
Connect your account to gain visibility of your Kubernetes environment, explore your clusters, and manage alerts. | |
Monitor and report data from many popular services, including Kubernetes, Redis, Apache, RabbitMQ, and many more. | |
To create your own lightweight integration, use our Flex integration tool. |
Install instructions
To enable cloud integrations or install on-host integrations, see:
- Cloud integrations: AWS procedures, Azure procedures, Google Cloud Platform procedures
- Kubernetes: Kubernetes procedures
- On-host integrations: See an integration's documentation for install procedures
- SDK integrations: Procedures to create a custom integration
Features
After an infrastructure integration is activated, you can:
- Filter and analyze the metrics and configuration data in our Infrastructure UI.
- Query your data and create custom charts and dashboards.
- Create alert conditions to monitor problems with your services' performance.
- For cloud integrations, configure data collection settings.
Types of integration data
Infrastructure integrations generate some basic types of data that you can use in New Relic.
Integration data | Description |
---|---|
Metrics | Numeric measurement data. Examples:
|
Inventory | Live system state and configuration information. Examples:
|
Events | Important activity on a system. Examples:
|
Attributes | Key-value pairs generated by some integrations. Examples:
|
Our integrations are data agnostic; they have no knowledge of whether reported data contains personal information. For more information about New Relic's security measures, see our security and privacy documentation, or visit the New Relic security website.
