Re: Monitoring a Clojure app, possibly with New Relic
Here's what you need to do to get the New Relic plugin working with a Clojure/Pedestal app on Heroku. It took some fiddling because there are several versions of docs floating around for doing this, but none of them were quite right.

Monitoring a Clojure app, possibly with New Relic
I need to implement some performance monitoring and exception tracking for my Clojure app. My first thought was to just use New Relic. I implemented it according to Heroku's New Relic instructions for Clojurehttps://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/newrelic#clojure-configuration. It initialized the dashboard successfully, but no data is ever sent. I've seen two other https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/clojure/mfwIvW1KZAM reports http://stackoverflow.com/q/13420912/425313 of no data being received as well.

Re: Monitoring a Clojure app, possibly with New Relic
Although I can't answer for the New Relic approach on Heroku, I can
say that we happily use New Relic to monitor a Clojure app that runs
inside Tomcat, as well some standalone command line Clojure apps.
For the Tomcat app, we add -javaagent manually in
{tomcat}/bin/setenv.sh to point to a local folder containing the New
Relic agent JAR - and our New Relic config file, containing our
license key and application name etc. We also have that JAR as a
dependency and import it into code we want to specifically instrument.
See this blog post for details:
http://corfield.org/blog/post.cfm/instrumenting-clojure-for-new-relic-monitoring
The agent should report basic data without that additional level of
instrumentation but much depends on its ability to understand the
container in which your Clojure code runs. We did not get much detail
with the agent alone.
Our standalone apps use New Relic's metrics-publish JAR (not on Maven,
downloaded separately and installed in our Archiva repo), and do a
little trick for spinning off a monitoring probe thread, using some
custom code, essentially as a New Relic plugin. I'll try to make that
available as an open source project at some time but it's not high on
my list. If you're interested, contact me off list (sean at corfield
dot org) and I can share details.

that works well?
