New Relic to Bring SaaS-Based APM to Windows Azure Developer Portal

New Relic announced at Microsoft Build 2012 that the company is strengthening its strategic relationship with Microsoft by offering an add-on option in the Windows Azure store, part of the Azure Developer Portal.

Now, any developer who is deploying any mission-critical web app on Windows Azure can instantly implement New Relic’s proven capabilities for monitoring, triaging and diagnosing performance issues throughout the web application environment.

New Relic is one of its inaugural add-on vendors due to its considerable experience in monitoring cloud applications, providing multi-language support and delivering unparalleled ease of deployment in cloud and hosted environments.

In three simple steps, developers can quickly deploy the New Relic web application performance management solution from inside the Windows Azure developer portal. The developer just logs into the portal, builds the application within Microsoft Visual Studio, and then implements New Relic. New Relic’s availability within Windows Azure store helps deliver fast and efficient SaaS-based, end-to-end monitoring of web applications on the Windows Azure open cloud platform.

“Just as Microsoft is building a secure, open cloud platform that scales across the globe, New Relic is intent on making application performance management available to the masses with an easy-to-use SaaS offering. The Windows Azure developer portal is ideal for making people aware of the important work we do. Membership in the Windows Azure ecosystem enables us to be on the forefront of offering a more secure, cloud-ready solution to developers as they build, deploy and maintain their business-critical applications,” said Lew Cirne, New Relic CEO and Founder.
