New Relic Catalogs provides a single-pane view that enhances the observability and management of systems across your organization. By offering a unified perspective on entities, it empowers teams to make well-informed decisions, streamline operations, and collaborate more effectively.
With Catalogs, you can quickly identify and focus on the most relevant information, ensuring easy access to what matters most. It serves as the single source of truth, enabling users to discover, manage, and optimize their systems with confidence.
By consolidating data from multiple sources—including Teams, Scorecards, Maps, and repository into a single interface, Catalogs replaces the All Entities view, offering a more structured and insightful experience. It provides a comprehensive overview of high-value entities, enriched with detailed metadata and actionable insights, helping teams stay aligned and efficient.
Key features

View entity details with the side panel
Click any entity row in the table to open a side panel displaying detailed entity information and metadata. This allows you to customize the main table view to show only the most relevant columns for your day-to-day use while still being able to access all contextual information and metadata when needed. This approach streamlines your workflow by keeping the main view uncluttered while ensuring all detailed information remains readily accessible.
