Upgrading vs Migrating - How Atlassian Scaled Developer Efficiency in One Week

With millions of monthly active users across Bitbucket and Jira, Atlassian relied heavily on the real-time telemetry they got from their open source instance of Sentry. However, because it took the equivalent of two full-time engineers to maintain their out-of-date instance, Atlassian started to explore paths to upgrade or migrate to SaaS, as the risk of things breaking increased with each new release.

Hot Ones Interview with an Engineering Manager

In this video, we do a spin off of one of our favorite shows Hot Ones, where we combine an interview with Web Platform Team Technical Project Manager Steven and our Web Platform Team EM Vladan, and hot sauces. Meet both of them in this in this video, and watch them suffer as they go from one hot sauce level to the next just like they do in Hot ones.

An Engineering Manager's Tips for Increasing Autonomy and Reducing Noise

Business is booming – your team is growing, your customer base is expanding, and you’re shipping more than ever. But without the right processes in place to scale, that fast-paced growth can leave engineering teams scrambling to navigate an increasingly more complex codebase, new team structures, and an ever-growing backlog of issues and requests. Join Jad Chamoun, Engineering Manager at Forethought, as he walks through how Forethought increased developer autonomy and workflow efficiency so their growing team can triage issues quickly without playing the blame game.

DevOps.JS Workshop: Tracking errors and slowdowns across JS applications using Sentry

Join Simon Zhong, Sentry Sales Engineer, as he goes through setting up Sentry step-by-step to get visibility into our frontend and backend.

What are Suspect Spans?

Suspect Spans surfaces a list of spans that correspond to where the most time in a transaction is spent. Instead of clicking into every trace in an attempt to identify the bad actor, check out the Spans tab or Suspect Spans section in every transaction summary and jump directly to the span that needs your attention. In this video, we dive more into what suspect spans are, and we go through a demo of how you can also use Suspect Spans as a complement to your performance monitoring.

How Monday.com Accelerates Time to Triage with Code Observability
