Last week we finally had use for New Relic's RPM service which we have been using for the last couple of months. Our cluster is approaching it's application limit and we are using RPM to monitor it closely.

I found myself needing a quick glance of how our apps are doing wherever I am. Therefore I started work on a small app that would gather and display the RPM statistics using their new API.

It took me about half a day to hack the current 1.0 version together. I have submitted it to the AppStore and it is pending approval. The basic functionality is kept very basic (to scratch my own itch):

• Show basic traffic light stats for all applications
• Shake to refresh
• Easy entry of license key, mail yourself a memento://key_here link
• Somewhat bareable UI
• Free

Below is a screenshot of how it looks in the simulator. I might be adding a single drill-down view to show the actual numbers if I feel it's missing as I use it :)

Update (2009-05-07): App got rejected because I didn't provide a demo newrelic account. So i created a bogus account and re-submitted...Patience

Update (2009-05-14): App got accepted and is in the AppStore

Note: Copy pasting an URL in Mail.app to generate a memento link won't work. If you put your license key in the box below, press the button and copy/paste the link in Mail.app it should all go fine!

Enter your key in the box, and press convert!
