Wow, anything that can be compared to New Relic and come out cheaper really must cost a fortune. New Relic are great, but at the moment they're probably the most expensive part of our infrastructure (including servers, through virtue of AWS giving hefty account credits to companies in incubators).

Ruxit looked very interesting. But you are right, they are expensive. 0.15$ per host per hour. That means, 0.15 x 24 x 30 = 108$ per month per host.

Compare it to something like Data Dog which costs 15$ per host per month. https://www.datadoghq.com/pricing/

I agree that it is expensive. However, I went through their Product Tour and blogs and it looks like they are taking a very novel approach as far as APM is concerned. Apart from the price, how's the actual experience? Does their AI actually identify the root cause of a problem? Does the no-configuration approach actually work?

Ruxit is actually cheaper than New Relic by about 149 if you use it 24x7 and commit to an annual contract. Ruxit is pure pay-as-you go.

Why do you think this is more expensive?
