Observability platform provider New Relic today announced what is says is the first solution for monitoring DeepSeek by supporting the Chinese-made AI model on Microsoft Azure AI Foundry. Customers can monitor applications built with DeepSeek and gain wide visibility across the AI stack, which can help organizations cut the costs and complexity of generative AI applications.
According to the company’s announcement, Gartner predicts that over 80% of enterprises will use GenAI or deploy GenAI apps by 2026. New Relic is addressing the need for organizations trying to choose and deploy the right AI models so they can get a leg up in the market.
“There are a steady release of new models like DeepSeek, Alibaba’s Qwen2.5-Max, and more, and organizations cannot afford to make the wrong AI implementation decisions in today’s hyper-competitive market,” New Relic CEO Ashan Willy said in the announcement. “Observability solves this challenge by providing visibility across the AI stack. We are pioneering AI observability and extending our platform to include AI apps built with DeepSeek so enterprises can make the right decisions on which AI models to deploy and where to use them. Combining DeepSeek’s cost-effective AI models with our expertise in observability and APM gives enterprises a competitive edge in the AI race.”
Along with the broad view of the AI stack, New Relic’s solution provides metrics on throughput, latency and cost, along with tracing request flows across services and models to gain the insights required to understand the new AI applications, the company said.
This integration follows New Relic AI monitoring’s recent integrations with Nvidia NIM and Amazon Bedrock, and now puts the number at more than 60 AI integrations. According to the company, AI monitoring is available as part of its observability platform and offered via its usage-based pricing model.
