New Relic to Datadog Migration FAQs

New Relic is a cloud observability platform that provides application performance monitoring (APM), infrastructure monitoring, log management, browser monitoring, and synthetic monitoring,  all within a unified telemetry data platform. It uses NRQL (New Relic Query Language) for data exploration and offers flexible data ingestion from a wide range of sources.

New Relic is a mature, capable platform used by thousands of engineering and DevOps teams worldwide. When organizations decide to transition their New Relic environment to Datadog  for reasons specific to their team, architecture, or business requirements. Crest Data handles the migration with full fidelity, converting NRQL queries, dashboards, and alert policies into their Datadog equivalents automatically.

New Relic has a free plan that gives you 100GB of data to play with every month, and you also get one full-platform user for free. This means smaller teams or people just trying out the service can use all of New Relic's features without paying a dime. If you need more than what the free plan offers, New Relic's pricing is pretty straightforward - you pay based on how much data you use, measured in gigabytes, and how many full-platform users you have. This way, teams can easily scale up or down as they need to, without having to worry about surprise costs.

When you're thinking of switching from New Relic to Datadog, it's really important to understand how each platform charges for its services, especially considering how much data you have and how big your team is. To help with this, Crest Data does a special exercise to figure out the costs, which is part of their migration planning process, so you can make a decision that's right for you.

When companies look at how to keep an eye on their systems, they consider a few top choices - like New Relic, Datadog, Dynatrace, Splunk Observability Cloud, and Elastic. Each of these options has its own set of features, ways it can be set up, and pricing plans that fit different types of companies and their technology setups.

We have a lot of experience with many different platforms at Crest Data. We can help you move your data from one platform to another, no matter which ones you are using. Our approach is flexible, so we can help you with your migration no matter what platform you want to use. We don't prefer one vendor over another, our goal is to make sure your migration is done correctly and completely.

Crest Data's migration tool makes it easy to switch from New Relic to Datadog. It automatically converts New Relic dashboards and queries into Datadog format. The tool knows how to change different types of charts and tables from New Relic into the same types of charts and tables in Datadog. It also translates the query language from New Relic into the language used by Datadog, including things like filters, aggregations, and faceting. This means you can easily move your data and queries from one platform to the other without having to start from scratch.

When you move to a new system, we make sure to transfer your alert policies and notification channels too. This way, you won't have to worry about setting up your monitoring configuration all over again. We also give you a detailed report after the migration, which shows how well the transfer went and points out any issues that our engineers need to look at manually. This report helps us figure out what worked well and what didn't, so we can make the transition as smooth as possible.

Crest Data's New Relic to Datadog migration follows a structured five-phase process:

  1. Assessment — We inventory your New Relic environment, cataloguing all dashboards, alert policies, NRQL queries, and data sources.
  2. Mapping - this is where we match each part of New Relic with the similar part in Datadog. We also look for complicated items that need a specialist to review them.
  3. Automated Conversion - Our system can automatically convert a lot of things for you, like dashboards, queries, and alerts, all at the same time. This means your team won't have to spend as much time doing it manually.
  4. Validation — Converted assets are tested side-by-side with the source environment to verify accuracy and completeness.
  5. Go-Live — We support the cutover with a parallel-run period to ensure full continuity before decommissioning the New Relic environment.

The whole thing usually takes somewhere between 3 to 6 weeks, but it really depends on how complicated everything is. If you're interested, just get in touch with us and we can set up a free call to figure out what you need.
