New Relic has acquired the technology and hired key members of the team behind CoScale, a Belgian company with deep experience monitoring container and microservices environments, with a special focus on Kubernetes.

The CoScale team members joining New Relic will focus on incorporating CoScale’s capabilities and experience into continuing innovations for the New Relic platform, specifically New Relic Infrastructure.

"With these additional team members and technology, we are doubling down on our investment into monitoring workloads running on Kubernetes, which has become the de facto standard for orchestrating containerized applications. New Relic already monitors Kubernetes, Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (EKS), Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), and RedHat Openshift — and we are confident that our new team members will help us expand our capabilities in these areas," said Ramon Guiu, Director of Product Management for New Relic Infrastructure.

"CoScale has been a leader in providing powerful container-native monitoring for Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift, providing full-stack container visibility in production environments," Guiu continued. "We expect the technology will further enable New Relic to serve DevOps teams looking to deploy containers by accelerating our roadmap and building a stronger container and Kubernetes monitoring product.

CoScale CEO Stijn Polfliet said: “The visions of New Relic and CoScale are remarkably well aligned, so our team is excited that we get to join New Relic and continue on our journey of helping companies innovate faster by providing them visibility into the performance of their modern architectures. Fred and I feel like this is such an exciting space and time to be in this market, and we’re thrilled to be teaming up with the amazing team at New Relic, the leader in monitoring modern applications and infrastructure.”
