Profiling from Sentry: Identify and Eliminate Performance Bottlenecks with Code-level Insight

Users are complaining about slow load times and you’ve thrown logs, traces, and metrics — heck, the entire kitchen sink of performance monitoring — at your application, but you still can’t figure out the source of the bottleneck. Maybe you missed adding instrumentation to something in the critical path, or you’re simply testing in an environment vastly different from the ones your users are experiencing in production.

Sleep More; Triage Faster with Sentry

As a developer, triage duty week was often the worst week of my month. Anytime a bug was reported, I’d search for the right environment, wander through logs, pray there was an associated stack trace, use my mental mapping of our code base, and route bugs to the right teams. Developers on triage rotation need to ensure bugs are routed to the correct team along with adequate information to help the team investigate the bug.

Building better mobile experiences: tips from Riot Games and Nextdoor

Building high quality, performant mobile apps is hard. Developers need to keep up with rapidly changing technologies, high user expectations, and competitive app stores. We sat down with Julius Skripkauskas and Walt Leung to discuss how mobile developers can build better mobile experiences, including choosing the right technology, focusing on the right KPIs, and staying on top of trends in device formats and AI.

Introducing Search by User Click for Session Replay

You run an e-commerce website and notice a drop in sales on a specific product page. You suspect that users may be encountering an issue with the “Add to Cart” button, but you’re not sure what’s causing the problem. With Sentry Session Replay’s new search by user click feature, you can easily find replays where users clicked on that button and watch their sessions to see exactly what happened.

Introducing the Sentry GitHub Deployment Gate Integration

If you have a large codebase with multiple developers shipping quickly – errors need to be caught quickly as well. To help ensure your code is performant and reliable while you’re deploying code, we partnered with GitHub to build a bridge between your CI/CD workflow and your favorite error monitoring tool (Sentry, of course).

Confidently Manage Multiple Projects with Sentry's New Spend Allocation and Spike Protection

Today we’re announcing our new Spend Allocation feature and updates to Spike Protection, giving you more control over how your projects consume events. While we’ve made it super easy for teams to add Sentry to their projects, we kept hearing from the community that they wanted more guardrails to ensure their noisy projects don’t eat through their event quota.

Syntax × Sentry MMXXIII

Today is a special day at Sentry, as today we welcome Syntax to the family. We’ve long been fans of Scott and Wes, of what they’ve built with Syntax, and of their general curiosity, drive, and hustle. As one of Sentry’s earliest partners, it’s been amazing to watch and experience their growth alongside our own. Today we’re going to talk about the next chapter of Syntax, one with increasing ambition, and one we hope you’ll be just as excited about as we are.

Code Mappings and Why They Matter

Code Mappings connect errors to the source code in a repository. And since errors can have paths that are different from the tree structure of the repository, Code Mappings determines the accurate path through a combination of a repository URL and a path transformation. Sentry uses Code Mappings to serve issue context on the issue details page.

Making Performance Monitoring More Actionable with Sentry

How your code performs isn’t a subjective debate. Well, at least not anymore — in the past few months, Sentry has started telling you exactly what’s slow and where to fix it — specifically, N+1 database queries in your code. While we’ve all had to fix an N+1 problem, performance problems come in multiple flavors. Today, you’ll notice more Performance Issues in your issue feed, Slack alerts, and email notifications.
