Raygun CLI is a powerful command-line interface tool designed to enhance the developer experience when working with Raygun's error tracking and performance monitoring platform. With this tool, we bring Raygun's features directly to your terminal, making it easier to integrate some important elements of Raygun Crash Reporting and error tracking into your development and CI/CD workflow. We are excited to announce the release of version 1.0.0 of Raygun CLI.

We've rolled out a new feature in Raygun Alerting that gives you more control over how you track and respond to performance regressions. Starting today, you can now use the 75th percentile (P75) as a filter option for page performance data in Real User Monitoring, such as Core Web Vitals and page load time, right alongside the default 'Average'. This option is available under the "Page/XHR performance change" condition and supports all the Web Vitals metrics we track: Let's break down why this matters, when you should use P75, and how it gives you better, faster insights into how real users are experiencing your site or app.

Application performance monitoring systems tend to be available in two modes: on-premise and cloud-based SaaS. Which is the "right" choice? Well, it depends on your situation, but overall cloud-based SaaS offerings have significant benefits when compared to on-premise. However, it's not always so simple. The right selection depends on the facts on the ground. Using my experience working for a large-scale cloud solutions department, I've put together some key things you'll want to consider before you make a decision, starting with some benefits and challenges.

In Part 1, we walked through the top 5 most common.NET exceptions-breaking down what triggers them and how to fix them. Now, we're rounding out the list with five more exceptions every.NET developer is bound to encounter at some point: These exceptions can stem from database issues, memory mismanagement, and logic errors that can bring your applications to a halt. In this article, we'll break down each one, explain when and why they occur, and share practical strategies to fix them so you can keep your code running smoothly.

Most security teams overlook a goldmine of data sitting right in their applications - crash reports and Real User Monitoring (RUM) telemetry. While engineers typically use these tools for performance tracking, they can reveal security incidents that might otherwise go unnoticed. Let's explore some practical ways to turn your observability data into a powerful security monitoring system. I'll help create a table of contents in the requested format based on the headings in the article.

Exception handling is essential to.NET development, but not all exceptions are equal. Some, like NullReferenceException, surprise developers with unclear stack traces and production crashes. Others, such as MySQLException or HttpRequestException, often point to issues like resource mismanagement or network failures. At Raygun, we've worked with teams around the world to monitor and fix software issues, giving us deep insight into how exceptions occur and how to handle them effectively.
