Story
Communication Services work at Niantic spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Application health was splitting across regional habits. SREs and developers asked for a shared way to run production support without freezing local judgment.
New Relic (New Relic IAST) is what they standardized on. New Relic provides observability software so engineering teams can monitor applications, infrastructure, and user experience. Niantic uses it as the system of record for application health, with SREs and developers as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
