New Relic or Java Plumbr for AEM application monitoring?

It may not be the tool you are looking for, but take a look at the open source Sling APM Framework which enables New Relic to provide meaningful transaction names in AEM.

FYI since labs.6dglobal.com is down, here's a link to the same post about AEM NewRelic monitoring on my personal blog: https://www.danklco.com/posts/2014/04/30/monitoring-aem-newrelic/

We use NewRelic to monitor our AEM instances but I believe we need more direct/involved monitoring tools. Do guys know any other tools which we can use in addition to NewRelic ?

Thanks in Advance.

I would recommend New Relic.

Their server monitoring tools allow us to remotely monitor various servers and development applications for free and their stuff just works.
