Explorer has two main components: New Relic Lookout and New Relic Navigator.

New Relic Lookout provides an estate-wide, real-time view of any changes in telemetry data, automatically drawing attention to where it’s needed most, without relying on static alert thresholds. Zoom in capabilities allow teams to pinpoint correlations, abnormal history and traces immediately.

New Relic Navigator delivers a visualisation of all of the entities in a system, using 'traffic lights' to show the health of each application, service, container, function and host.

Entities can be grouped or filtered to provide a aggregate view of a particular service or set of services..

The relationships between specific applications, hosts, containers or integrations are shown in one view, helping engineers troubleshoot cascading failures more quickly.

“Modern IT teams have to grapple with limited visibility into their entire technology stack and increasingly complex technology environments despite having a wide array of tools at their disposal,” said New Relic Asia-Pacific and Japan executive vice-president and general manager Dmitri Chen.

“With New Relic Explorer, engineers can easily discover emerging issues in real-time, and reap the benefits of Full-Stack Observability as problems are resolved well before they impact customers.”

All existing New Relic customers will be automatically upgraded to New Relic Explorer, New Relic Lookout and New Relic Navigator in the coming weeks.
