Sentry

Overview

Sentry is an application monitoring platform that helps developers see what actually matters in production. It tracks errors, exceptions, and performance bottlenecks across web and mobile apps, providing stack traces with code context.

Pricing & Free Tier

Free Tier (Developer): Yes. Includes 5,000 errors per month, 1 user, and unlimited projects.
Team Plan: $26/month. Unlocks 50,000 errors, unlimited users, and 30-day data retention.
Business Plan: $80/month. Adds advanced performance monitoring and 90-day retention.

How to Use

1. Sign up at sentry.io and create a new project (e.g., React, Python, Laravel).
2. Install the Sentry SDK in your codebase.
3. Initialize Sentry with your DSN (Data Source Name) key.
4. When an error occurs in production, Sentry captures it and alerts you via email or Slack.

Important Notes

• Data Scrubbing: Sentry captures the environment. Ensure you configure "Data Scrubbing" in the settings to prevent passwords or PII (Personally Identifiable Information) from being logged.
• Quota Exhaustion: If you exceed your monthly error quota, Sentry will stop recording new errors until the next billing cycle.
