New Relic launched the general availability of New Relic live archives.
By storing historical logs alongside other logs and telemetry data within the New Relic Data Platform, live archives allows instant access to historical logs and eliminates the need to rehydrate, reload, re-index, or move data to multiple locations. It maintains historical logs in an active and enhanced state, which allows engineering teams to instantaneously address regulatory requests, thereby minimizing compliance risks. At one-fourth the cost of other long-term log storage solutions, live archives allows engineers to store historical logs for up to seven years, making it one of the most affordable compliance solutions on the market.
Live archives provides a fast, easily accessible, long-term log storage solution that helps organizations be better prepared to manage their compliance risks.
Key capabilities and benefits include:
- Access instantly: Query and analyze historical logs instantly – all stored within the New Relic Data Platform – with the same familiar log management experience as operational logs.
- 1/4th lower costs: Avoid paying for ingress and egress (i.e., moving historical log data in and out of the cloud to analyze), indexing, reformatting, or the need to operate additional logs tools.
- Eliminate toil: Retain historical logs for up to seven years in an active and enriched state and streamline the process to store and access historical logs, removing the need to rehydrate, reload, re-index, manually intervene, or move data to multiple locations or tiers to analyze.
- Setup in 30 seconds: Easily define which logs to store via a simple New Relic Query Language (NRQL) rule, using your current logs to decide what to route to live archives, without needing a new log collector.
- Minimize compliance response time: Quickly meet regulatory requirements with log queries that are readily available for critical legal discovery and compliance audit requests.
“It’s getting increasingly difficult for organizations to adhere to technical regulatory compliance requirements, especially with generative AI being integrated into their already complex tech stacks. When critical legal discovery and compliance audit requests arise, IT and engineering teams need quick and easy access to the crucial compliance data in their historical logs,” said New Relic Chief Product Officer Manav Khurana. “Live archives is an extension of New Relic’s log management capabilities and empowers teams to keep their log data in one place while providing instant access, deeper visibility, and greater context, which helps simplify historical log analysis and streamline regulatory compliance.”
