Where do I install a New Relic plugin in a Rails 3 app?

81 Views Asked by At

I want to install a Redis plugin for New Relic. I have looked at the instructions for those plugins, and gone over the general Ruby plugin instructions. I understand how to change the config file, but for the life of me I can't figure out where in my rails app to actually put the plugin.

Where should it go?

The New Relic plugins are actually stand-alone processes that do not integrate directly with Rails or any other process. You can run the plugin on any server you want. Maybe the server running Redis would be a good choice since the plugin will be connecting to Redis regularly to collect the metrics that it sends to New Relic.
