New Relic and AWS Lambda Integration - Instrumentation Strategies - Containerized Lambdas
Docker meets Serverless. Discover how to modify your Dockerfiles to include the New Relic agent and extension, ensuring full observability for functions deployed as container images rather than zip archives.
New Relic and AWS Lambda Integration - Instrumentation Strategies - The Manual Way (Wrapper Code)
When layers aren't enough. We cover manually wrapping handler functions to support custom runtimes or specific frameworks where you need granular control over exactly when the agent initializes.
New Relic and AWS Lambda Integration - Instrumentation Strategies - The Easy Way (Layers)
The no-code approach. Learn to inject the New Relic agent using AWS Lambda Layers. This allows you to add observability to Node, Python, and Java functions without changing a single line of your business code.
New Relic and AWS Lambda Integration - The New Relic Lambda CLI
Stop clicking around the console. Master the newrelic-lambda-cli tool to onboard functions, attach layers, and verify permissions purely from your command line interface, speeding up bulk integrations.
New Relic and AWS Lambda Integration - Linking AWS and New Relic
The foundational handshake. Learn to configure the AWS IAM Role for access and set up Kinesis Firehose Metric Streams to pipe CloudWatch data into New Relic with minimal latency and setup time.
New Relic and AWS Lambda Integration - Architecture of the Integration
Understand how New Relic "sees" into AWS. We compare the high-latency API Polling method against the real-time Metric Streams approach and explain the critical role of the Lambda Extension sidecar in shipping data.
New Relic and AWS Lambda Integration - Key Metrics that Matter
Move beyond simple success/failure. We will deep dive into serverless-specific KPIs like Cold Starts, billed duration vs. actual duration, and memory utilization to truly measure the health of your functions.
New Relic and AWS Lambda Integration - The "Black Box" Problem
Traditional monitoring fails when servers are ephemeral. Learn why standard server metrics disappear in Lambda environments and why you need visibility inside the execution cycle itself to catch issues that vanish when the container dies.
OIDC - Debugging OIDC
When things break, how do you fix them? Master tools like jwt.io and OIDC Debuggers to inspect raw tokens and troubleshoot common errors like invalid_grant or mismatched redirect URIs.
OIDC - B2B vs. B2C Patterns
Enterprise needs differ from consumer apps. We’ll explore architectures for multi-tenancy, organization-specific login policies, and "Identity Brokering" (Log in with Google/Microsoft).
