  • Supporting a Data-Driven Culture: FlightStats at its core is a data business assisting organizations and travelers optimize their travel experience. New Relic Insights has offered FlightStats visibility into their data sources, their customers’ experience and performance of their applications through dashboards throughout the office that inform daily decisions on their business.
  • Driving Agile Development and DevOps Methods: With New Relic Insights, FlightStats’ product teams now have much more targeted data to allow them to quickly deliver the highest quality software to market. In addition, the data and analytics New Relic delivers became a common language between FlightStats’ developers and IT engineers, which they found to reduce friction after products were deployed.
  • Track and Redirect Data Scrapers: New Relic Browser showed who was scraping data from the FlightStats website and enabled the company to redirect that traffic to their paid APIs. As a result FlightStats was able to decrease scraper traffic from their website by 50 percent.
  • Monitor and Migrate Workloads in the Cloud:When FlightStats identified the need for a centralized global data center they decided to migrate applications to Amazon Web Services (AWS). FlightStats has used New Relic APM and New Relic Server to identify which applications to move, how best to scale those resources economically, and how to decrease latency for customers through this hybrid cloud environment.
