Important
We recommend updating to the latest agent version as soon as it's available. If you are prevented from upgrading to the latest version, ensure that your agents are updated to a version at most 90 days old. Read more about keeping your agent up to date.
As of this release, the oldest supported version is 6.9.0.363
v8.15.0
Version 8.15.0 of the agent confirms compatibility with Ruby 3.2.0, adds instrumentation for concurrent-ruby, and confirms Sinatra 3 compatibility with Padrino 0.15.2. It also enables batching and compression for Infinite Tracing.
Add Support for Ruby 3.2.0
Following the 3.2.0 release of Ruby, the New Relic Ruby agent has confirmed compatibility with and now supports the official release of Ruby 3.2.0. PR#1715
Add instrumentation for concurrent-ruby
The agent now instruments the concurrent-ruby gem for versions 1.1.5 and above. This instrumentation provides visibility inside blocks passed to many of the gem's API methods, including
Concurrent::Promises.futureandConcurrent::Future.execute.
| Configuration name | Default | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
instrumentation.concurrent_ruby | auto | Controls auto-instrumentation of the concurrent-ruby library at start up. May be one of auto, prepend, chain, disabled. |
Infinite Tracing: Use batching and compression
For Infinite Tracing, which Ruby applications can leverage with the
newrelic-infinite_tracinggem, payloads will now be batched and compressed to signficantly decrease the amount of outbound network traffic. PR#1723
| Configuration name | Default | Behavior | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
infinite_tracing.batching | true | If true (the default), the Trace Observer will receive data in batches instead of sending each span individually | |||
infinite_tracing.compression_level | high | Configure the compression level for data sent to the trace observer. May be one of [none | low | medium | high]. 'high' is the default. Set the level to 'none' to disable compression. |
