What you'll learn

Application teams often have telemetry available but still struggle to identify why an application is slow, failing, or behaving differently after a release.

In this course, Configuring Application Observability in New Relic, you’ll gain the ability to configure practical observability workflows for deeper application troubleshooting.

First, you’ll explore how to diagnose performance bottlenecks using transaction details, dependency latency, distributed traces, and error information.

Next, you’ll discover how metrics, spans, events, and custom attributes add context for more targeted investigation.

Finally, you’ll learn how to track deployments, compare application behavior before and after a rollout, and identify degradation that may require a hotfix or rollback.

When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of application observability in New Relic needed to diagnose issues faster and understand the operational impact of application changes.
