Application Monitoring Overview: How to Track Errors with Sentry

A quick walkthrough of the Sentry application monitoring platform. In just a few steps, Sentry allows developers to identify and fix production errors across every application in the stack. Get started by installing the appropriate SDK for your platform or platforms. All unhandled exceptions will be automatically captured by Sentry, with individual errors rolling up into larger issues. You will be able to quickly learn the impact of specific problems, examine the stack trace, and get added context about the application state, so you can connect issues to the root cause.

Distributed Tracing with Sentry: How to Find the Root Cause of Errors Across Applications

Implementing Sentry on all your services allows you to use distributed tracing to find the root cause of errors. Just because an error happens in a browser or mobile app, doesn’t mean the issue is with the frontend or mobile code. The issue could stem from an error with code in a different project that they interact with in some way. Distributed tracing empowers developers to find the actual cause of hard to fix issues.

Incorporating Crash Data Into Your Workflow

Crash reporting can alter the balance between support and development, and swing it in your favor! Sure "literally" is an overused term. But, I think it’s fair to say that “LITERALLY” nobody likes it when software crashes. Users don’t like it when the software they love using breaks. They’re left wondering what happened and how long will it be until there’s a fix.
