Error Types
The PHP agent now captures the error types for any errors that occur. This allows you to selectively include or exclude certain error messages. This is especially good …

The root cause was the same as the Bamboo router degradation: the code didn't change, but scaling out the router nodes caused the data to become increasingly inaccurate and eventually useless. With New Relic's help, we fixed this in February …
