Dr. Abdullah Malik, PhD - PeerSpot reviewer

Monitoring has improved latency analysis and now supports precise root cause detection
I believe New Relic Solutions [Private Offer Only] needs to work on AI anomaly detection and reduce false positive alerts through the context threshold. Regarding dependency visibility and root cause analysis, New Relic Solutions [Private Offer Only] should be able to detect single points of failure and cascading failures instead of allowing users to perform tracing activity manually. This would be beneficial because maximum time goes into manual tracing activities. Additionally, New Relic Solutions [Private Offer Only] should help us identify if there are thread pools and connection pools in performance optimization, as pool data visibility enables us to determine whether we need to increase the pool size or connection size.

Automated infrastructure deployment has reduced our backend release time from days to hours
I found an issue with features that was difficult for me when we needed to retrieve some tags or IDs of a resource that we deployed using Upbound Crossplane, for example, the RDS. We encountered a problem where we needed to use the ID of the RDS in another document that we have, making it difficult to return this information using Upbound Crossplane deployment. I believe Upbound Crossplane could be improved by possibly having a feature that can return tags, IDs, or resources that were deployed inside AWS, such as needing to return the ID of the VPC that we create when using Upbound Crossplane. I think the current state of Upbound Crossplane is already good enough.

"When I provisioned PostgreSQL and S3 buckets through Crossplane, I noticed improvements in deployment speed, reliability, and team collaboration."
"Upbound Crossplane has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to reduce our deployment time from three days to three hours for the entire back-end and entire infrastructure."
"The best features Upbound Crossplane offers are infrastructure as Kubernetes APIs and self-service infrastructure, where developers can provision resources without cloud credentials, and its strong multi-cloud support that makes it useful in managing AWS, Azure, and GCP from a single control plane with valuable GitOps integration."
"Upbound Crossplane has impacted our organization positively as it has been a transformative experience because the main thing about transformation is how we were able to make our lives easier as engineers."
"We went from having a 28-member troubleshooting team down to four to five members of the platform engineering team."
"Upbound Crossplane impacts my organization positively because, from our perspective, we need to rely on fewer resources."
"Upbound Crossplane has positively impacted our organization by reducing the pipeline time, saving time, and decreasing cost spending."

Cons

"Support has potential for improvement to reduce the delays that occurred, depending on how the contract is structured with the customer."
"I believe New Relic Solutions [Private Offer Only] needs to work on AI anomaly detection and reduce false positive alerts through the context threshold."
"Regarding Upbound Crossplane's capabilities, I feel the governance and security is something which is lacking."
"I found an issue with features that was difficult for me when we needed to retrieve some tags or IDs of a resource that we deployed using Upbound Crossplane, for example, the RDS."
"Regarding Upbound Crossplane, I see room for enhancement in synchronizing the state file of Crossplane with Terraform, as 90% of organizations have generally implemented Terraform and have their own specific, environment-specific Terraform state files."
"Upbound Crossplane can be improved if they can add more AI agentic workflows."
"Upbound Crossplane was not stable in my experience."
"This was the only thing that we took as a disadvantage at the time of implementing, since we did not have any way to see what the Upbound Crossplane composition or what the Upbound Crossplane resource will do to the actual infrastructure."
"The documentation needs to be updated regarding the needed improvements for Upbound Crossplane. There is very little documentation online, and there are no tutorials for Upbound Crossplane."
"However, one area of improvement is the learning curve, as Upbound Crossplane concepts such as providers, compositions, and claims can be difficult for beginners."
