OREANDA-NEWS. August 11, 2016. Software analytics leader
New
Relic, Inc. (NYSE:NEWR) announced that
Fairfax Media (ASX:FXJ), a
leading multi-platform media company in
Australia and New Zealand,
standardized their monitoring with
New Relic. Fairfax joins thousands of
companies who trust
New Relic to support their cloud initiatives running
on Amazon Web Services (AWS). As a result of proven customer success in
organizations like Fairfax,
New Relic has achieved the AWS Migration
Competency.
Fairfax operates more than 300 sites spanning news, information,
property, services, and entertainment. As Fairfax’s digital business
grew, they identified that resources dedicated to building and
maintaining data centers could be better applied to building digital
products. Fairfax selected AWS as their preferred cloud services
provider based on the amount of cloud services they offered at scale.
Setting out with the goal of moving as many applications as possible
from their data centers to AWS, Fairfax initially started the journey by
manually moving individual applications over, but quickly saw the need
for in-depth performance data as they re-architected their applications
for the cloud. With the learnings from the first phase of their
migration, Fairfax standardized with New Relic to gain detailed
performance information on their applications and integrate within their
automation process.
With New Relic, Fairfax has established performance metrics from the
start and tracked them over time, enabling them to identify issues that
might not immediately present themselves. This has been especially
impactful for the company’s continuous-integration-and-deployment
processes, enabling developers to catch bugs that previously slipped
through and couldn’t be tracked. Additionally for applications that
haven’t fully migrated over to AWS, and are utilizing a hybrid
architecture with AWS, New Relic has enabled Fairfax to optimize
performance of services across environments.

“New Relic gives us detailed performance information and the ability to
track it over time as we re-architect our applications to run on AWS.
Our developers are able to take more responsibility for their code and
ship it faster with confidence,” said
Michael Lorant, senior systems
engineer at Fairfax Media. “Using New Relic has enabled us to know
what's going on before anyone else.”
“Cloud computing is a top priority for many organizations right now and
New Relic has an extensive track record of successfully enabling
customers to benchmark and troubleshoot application performance before,
during, and after a migration to AWS Cloud,” said
John Gray, SVP of
business development, New Relic. “For companies like Fairfax Media, New
Relic provides the performance data they need to streamline migration
and achieve ongoing success in the cloud with AWS.”
AWS Competency Program
The AWS Competency Program is intended to help AWS customers find
qualified members of the APN that have “demonstrated technical
proficiency and proven success” with specific solutions and/or vertical
areas. To qualify for the AWS Migration Competency, members of the AWS
Partner Network (APN) must have a strong overall AWS practice, be able
to showcase AWS customer successes, demonstrate technical readiness
