iPod to iPhone. Breaking Bad to Better Call Saul. Super Mario to Mario Maker. Leaders don’t rest on their laurels. That’s what motivated us to create Performance, our new code monitoring offering: to build off our core functionality and toward the demands developers face, both today and in the future.

Crashes are something we know a thing or two about. We see a lot of reasons why apps crash, but we also see when a lot of popular mobile apps crash at once, that’s something we notice. Crashes across many mobile apps at the same time is not typically a result of an app-specific code update. I mean, there’s a non zero chance that hundreds of developers published broken apps… but these widespread issues are likely a result of two things.

Among developers, alerts have a bad rep. But outside the coding environment, alerts can signify positive developments. For example, a microwave just alerted me that my burrito is ready to eat. Sentry’s new Metric Alerts is the microwave to the frozen burrito that is your code.

Over the past week, we rolled out access to Advanced Data Scrubbing for all users. If you were one of our Early Adopters, you’ve known about this for a couple of months. As the name implies, it’s an addition to our existing server-side data scrubbing features, meant to provide greater control and more tools to help you choose which data to redact from events. One of Sentry’s main selling points as an error monitoring platform is the data it collects and aggregates.
