SOASTA and New Relic announced their partnership and the integration of New Relic's application performance management solution on SOASTA's CloudTest platform.
Through the partnership, all SOASTA customers receive New Relic Standard free of charge and SOASTA CloudTest Lite is available to all New Relic customers.
Both products are also available on popular developer and cloud platforms including VMware CloudFoundry, CollabNet CloudForge, OpenStack and HP Cloud Services.
The integrated solution gives developers complete visibility into the performance of their web applications throughout the entire application development lifecycle.
Now developers can immediately begin building performance tests to assure the highest test coverage and tune their apps based on deep performance diagnostics to ensure the highest level of application performance and availability, all at no charge.
Together, New Relic and SOASTA CloudTest can be deployed in minutes, enabling users to build and run functional and performance tests of web applications, and then monitor, troubleshoot and tune their applications quickly and easily.
"The integration of New Relic onto the CloudTest platform allows for a seamless flow of communication and quick exchange of information between teams throughout the dev-test-management process," said Tom Lounibos, SOASTA CEO. "Now it has never been easier for organizations to conduct fast, comprehensive real-time tests with visibility into virtually every aspect of the application's performance, so they can release quicker."
"CloudTest is an essential tool for development teams building applications in today's world of rapid deployment cycles, and New Relic is very pleased to be integrated on the platform," said Bill Lapcevic, New Relic's vice-president of business development. "By bringing these two best-of-breed solutions together we’re creating an ideal solution for agile development teams who won’t settle for anything other than top performance and availability."
SOASTA customers can start using New Relic today and New Relic customers can download free CloudTest Lite immediately.

Enterprises today operate in a real-time environment where uninterrupted access to trusted data has become a baseline expectation for users, applications and automated systems. Traditional DataOps models, built on manual effort and human triage, cannot keep pace with this always active demand. AI agents are emerging as the operational backbone, ensuring consistent data availability, reinforcing trustworthiness and enabling a level of scale that manual processes cannot achieve ...
For decades, trust in the digital workplace rested on familiar signals. We trusted faces on video calls, voices on the phone, and emails that appeared to come from people we knew. These cues felt human and intuitive. They anchored how decisions were made, approvals were granted, and access was authorized. AI-powered deepfakes have quietly broken that model ...
Cloud migration was supposed to be a one-way door. For most enterprises, it turns out it isn't. Cloud data repatriation is a real and growing trend. A new survey ... finds that 89% of organizations plan to expand their on-premises infrastructure footprint over the next two years — and 75% have already moved at least some workloads back from public cloud in the past 24 months. The findings point to a broad rethinking of where data belongs ...
Over the past few years, large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the software industry. Given their ability to excel at multi-step reasoning, LLMs have helped enterprises streamline workflows and adapt to the unknown. However, employing such models comes with sky-high costs, latency issues, and limited flexibility. In the realm of IT operations, it is generally wiser to employ smaller, domain-specific models instead ...
For years, DevOps teams operated under a simple assumption: collect enough telemetry, and you can find and fix any problem. That assumption is breaking down. Modern enterprises now operate across microservices, hybrid cloud environments, APIs, Kubernetes, and highly automated delivery pipelines. Releases happen continuously, dependencies shift constantly, and failures spread faster than teams can diagnose them ...
New Relic surveyed IT and engineering leaders from the media and entertainment (M&E) sector to understand what's working — and where challenges persist with their observability practices. The findings reveal how M&E organizations are navigating rising platform complexity, audience expectations, and AI-driven change. Below are five takeaways that stand out ...
Let me start with something I've seen play out more times than I can count. A team hits a wall with the cloud. Costs creep up, then spike. Performance starts to feel inconsistent. Someone in finance asks a simple question like "why did this double?" and nobody has a clean answer ... Maybe this isn't the right place for everything. That realization feels like a breakthrough, like you've identified the problem. In reality, you've just identified the starting line ...
In MEAN TIME TO INSIGHT Episode 24, Shamus McGillicuddy, VP of Research, Network Infrastructure and Operations, at EMA discusses network observability tool sprawl ...
In cloud-native systems, scaling is often as simple as moving a slider. For on-premise databases, the stakes are different. Over-provisioning hardware is expensive. Under-provisioning leads to performance bottlenecks that are difficult to fix once the equipment is in the rack ...
When most people think about cybersecurity, they picture firewalls, encryption, and access controls — technical tools designed to protect systems and data. But beneath the technology lies a deeper set of principles about trust, decision-making, and resilience ... The best leaders don't eliminate risk. They manage it intelligently. And in many ways, cybersecurity offers a surprisingly useful playbook for doing exactly that ...
