Delivery and observability

Sentry

Error tracking with the stack trace, the release and the user context attached — what a log line usually leaves out.

When we reach for it

Every application with a browser or a mobile client, where the alternative is hearing about defects from customers. Knowing which errors are actually happening, and to how many people, is the difference between fixing a defect and reading a support ticket about it.

When we would argue against it

Nothing, provided personally identifiable data is scrubbed before it leaves. That is a configuration decision, and it is not the default. It also tells you what broke rather than why the system is slow, so it sits beside tracing and metrics rather than in place of them.

What it looks like in delivery

Releases tagged so a spike points at a deployment, and scrubbing rules reviewed as part of the privacy assessment. Source maps uploaded so a stack trace is readable, and the error list triaged rather than accumulated — an unmanaged feed becomes noise within a month.

Where this appears on the site

Nothing on this site names it yet

We work in Sentry, and no case study or service page currently published on this site prints it in its stack. Rather than describe an engagement you cannot check, this space stays empty until one does. Ask us and we will talk you through it directly.
