Buddy and Sentry integration
What is Sentry?
Sentry is an error tracking tool that helps developers monitor and debug issues in real-time. The service provides detailed event data for errors and uncaught exceptions, such as stack traces, request parameters, and environment context.
On top of that, it offers performance monitoring capabilities with throughput and latency metrics, allowing users to detect any slowdowns and optimize their web applications.
Integrating the service with Buddy allows you to enhance your deployment process by sending deployment data to your Sentry account on every pipeline execution. By utilizing this integration you can catch errors early in the deployment process, and ensure the overall quality and stability of your applications.
