newrelic 14.0.0

v14.0.0

on Python PyPI

Notes

This release of the Python agent adds utilization for Azure App Services, instrumentation for Azure Service Bus, support for a new Kinesis method, and support for Google ADK for v2.10.0 and above. This release also fixes an issue in httplib where distributed trace headers were duplicated as well as the setup.py installation file.

Install the agent using easy_install/pip/distribute via the Python Package Index, using conda via the Conda-Forge Package Index, or download it directly from the New Relic download site.

New Features

• Removed support for Python 3.9

  • Support for Python 3.9 has been removed.

• Utilization for Azure App Service

  • Utilization for Azure App Service was added to enable entity relationship mapping.
  • This also adds a new setting, utilization.detect_azureappservice

• New instrumentation for Azure Service Bus

  • Instrumentation was added for Microsoft Azure Service Bus.

• New instrumentation for new Kinesis method

  • The update_stream_record_distribution_strategy method is now supported in Kinesis.

Security Updates

• The internal urllib3 package has been updated to 2.8.0 to resolve all current CVEs in urllib3.

  • This resolves all known CVEs in the agent to date.

Enhanced Features

• Support for Google ADK v2.10.0 and above.

  • Instrumentation has been updated for Google ADK on versions 2.10.0 and above.

Bugs

• Duplicated distributed tracing headers in httplib

  • Fixed issues where httplib instrumentation could produce duplicate headers for traceparent, resulting in a malformed value.

• setup.py install file now works for all supported Python versions

  • If a user wanted to use the setup.py file directly to install the Python Agent on Python 3.12 and above, they would come across an ImportError. This is because distutils has been deprecated since Python 3.10 and entirely removed from the standard library in Python 3.12.

Support statement

We recommend updating to the latest agent version as soon as it's available. If you can't upgrade to the latest version, update your agents to a version no more than 90 days old. Read more about keeping agents up to date.
