We recently released version 2.0.0 of Sentry’s Godot Engine SDK, bringing C#/.NET support and application metrics to general availability. That means you can now capture errors from your managed C# code and track custom metrics across your development and retail builds.

If your.NET app talks to MongoDB, you almost certainly want to be able to measure DB performance so that you can effectively debug any performance issues you might run into. For that, you need to know which database command was running, how long it took, and whether this was a one-off blip or part of a broader pattern. Ideally, you also want to pivot from that trace to related errors and replays without stitching the story together by hand.

As.NET Multi-platform App UI (MAUI) becomes the default cross-platform UI framework in the Microsoft ecosystem, many teams are standardizing on it to build mobile applications for iOS and Android. However, observability has not kept pace with the shift in adoption. Developers often rely on unsupported community bindings or maintain their own wrappers around native iOS and Android SDKs, which introduces instability and ongoing maintenance.

Selecting an ADO.NET provider may seem like a simple, one-time decision, but it can affect performance, compatibility, and long-term maintainability for years. The provider sits between your application and SQL Server and affects everything from connection management and authentication to support for new database features. Also, today, SQL Server 2025 delivers new cloud-optimized features and modern security and System.Data.SqlClient has become legacy software.

In 2026, choosing the best PostgreSQL ADO.NET providers, or the right PostgreSQL.NET driver, comes down to the details. You need to know how they perform under load, how well they fit your stack, and what happens when things break. This guide compares the leading provider options side by side to help you identify the right fit for your environment. By evaluating these PostgreSQL ADO.NET providers, you can avoid pitfalls early, saving evaluation time and preventing costly fixes later.

Modern.NET applications depend on stable ADO.NET providers to connect their logic with MySQL databases. But developers often run into familiar issues, async performance that’s unreliable, providers that differ in maturity, licensing that’s unclear, or integration friction with EF Core or cloud pipelines. In this guide, you’ll get a clear, architecture-based comparison of the top ADO.NET providers for MySQL.

Behind every modern.NET application is an ADO.NET provider handling database connections, queries, and ORM operations behind the scenes. As applications become more cloud-native and data-intensive, that provider layer has become far more important than many teams realize. Performance, scalability, deployment reliability, and even developer workflow can all depend on the quality of the provider underneath the application.

Without a dedicated Dynamics 365 connector, software engineers can spend up to 50% of their time building custom integrations instead of shipping core features. They get pulled into JSON handling, OAuth setup, and OData limits, which slows everything down. A dedicated ADO.NET provider changes all that. It lets teams query CRM data with SQL, use familiar C# tools, and plug into ORMs like Entity Framework or Dapper, making it a practical dynamics CRM connector for modern.NET applications.

> Standard OTel.NET instrumentation captures headers, status codes, and timing — not request or response bodies. Here's how to add body capture to your traces while keeping PHI out of your observability backend. Prathamesh works as an evangelist at Last9, runs SRE stories - where SRE and DevOps folks share their stories, and maintains o11y.wiki - a glossary of all terms related to observability.

Choosing your Salesforce ADO.NET provider is more than ticking boxes; it’s the foundation of how your.NET apps interact with Salesforce data. That’s why this decision requires careful consideration of critical features, like ORM support, Entity Framework compatibility, query flexibility, and security. However, this process is far from simple; many providers don’t provide enough concrete details upfront.
