72.704 - 95.963 Benny Vasquez

So Dave, when I look at Sentry, I see you driving towards full application health, error monitoring where things began, session replay, being able to replay a view of the interface a user had going on when they experienced an issue with full tracing, full data, the advancements you're making with tracing and profiling, cron monitoring, code coverage, user feedback. and just tons of integrations.

96.343 - 100.024 Benny Vasquez

Give me a glimpse into the inevitable future. What are you driving towards?

100.444 - 115.849 Chad Whitacre

Yeah, one of the things that we're seeing is that in the past, people had separate systems where they had logs on servers written to files. They were maybe sending some metrics to Datadog or something like that or some other system. They were monitoring for errors with some product, maybe with Sentry.

116.149 - 133.981 Chad Whitacre

But more and more what we see is people want all of these sources of telemetry logically tied together somehow. And that's really what we're pursuing at Sentry now. We have this concept of a trace ID, which is kind of a key that ties together all of the pieces of data that are associated with the user action.

134.361 - 151.074 Chad Whitacre

So if user loads a web page, we want to tie together all the server requests that happened, any errors that happened, any metrics that were collected. And what that allows on the back end You don't just have to look at like three different graphs and sort of line them up in time and try to draw your own conclusions.

151.314 - 164.64 Chad Whitacre

You can actually like analyze and slice and dice the data and say, hey, what did this metric look like for people with this operating system versus this metric look like for people with this operating system and actually get into those details. So this kind of idea of.
