How to Troubleshoot Amplify APIs

One of the things we love about working in the cloud is the ease and scalability it brings to application development. It enables us to build out applications, APIs and any infrastructure that is needed from prototyping an idea, through to self scaling deployments. Monitoring and troubleshooting production-level serverless applications is always tricky, Especially working across a number of services and the many logs they can produce.

Introducing Mobile Screenshots and Suspect Commits

Nobody likes using an unstable mobile app or even worse, an app that crashes on them. In fact, 9 out of 10 US and UK consumers report uninstalling a mobile application due to poor performance. Crash rates and snappy experiences matter for all applications, but especially for mobile apps. Mobile app crashes and poor performance not only cause users to abandon an app but can also trigger the app to be ranked lower in Apple App Store and Google Play Store search results.

Monitor custom serverless metrics with the Datadog Lambda extension

When building serverless applications on AWS Lambda, Amazon CloudWatch provides out-of-the-box metrics that measure the performance, errors, and duration of your functions. Although these standard Lambda metrics provide visibility into your serverless applications, it can also be invaluable to monitor custom metrics that are unique to your use case and application.
