Already Love Scout APM? We Have Integrated Error Monitoring!

The error monitoring scene has changed a ton over the past few years. We've gone from basic exception tracking to fully integrated platforms that correlate errors with performance metrics and logs. We’ve even got AI-powered debugging! But in the midst of the AI explosion, some things remain unchanged and most teams are still drowning in data with little actionability.

The Ultimate Guide to Error Monitoring: Why Error Monitoring Matters More Than Ever in 2026

Errors get a bad rap, but they’re just trying to help. Remember, errors aren’t the enemy, they’re the messenger. Conventional wisdom tells you to think of errors as failures, as things that thwart progress and frustrate developers. The reality is that errors are actually there to help you. They prevent you from shipping broken code to production. They stop your application from continuing to operate incorrectly and costing you money.

Prioritize errors and create tickets using Rollbar's MCP Server

Production errors can feel overwhelming. Your Rollbar dashboard is filling up with alerts, your team is scrambling to understand what needs immediate attention, and critical revenue-impacting issues might be buried among less urgent problems. Sound familiar? In this post, I'll walk you through a workflow that transforms production error chaos into organized, prioritized action items. We'll cover everything from analyzing Rollbar errors to creating properly linked Linear tickets.

Hand Code or no Code, Scout Keeps Error Monitoring Out of the Log Mess

You’ve built something, it’s live, and users are starting to show up. Maybe you programmed it from scratch, used a tool, or vibe-coded it into existence. No matter how it came to be, the fact that you’ve got users is great! But here’s a question every new developer must eventually ask: how do I know when my site is actually failing? ‍ The thing is, these failures aren’t always obvious.

Debugging Errors in Background Jobs

Debugging background jobs is one of those tasks that always sounds easier than it is—until you’re knee-deep in stack traces that offer no real clues. Background jobs love to run in isolated environments, cutting themselves off from all the helpful context you’d normally have. @nikolovlazar shows us how to debug these errors anyway—piecing together the missing context across systems so you can actually fix the problem instead of just guessing.

Top 10 .NET exceptions (part one)

Exception handling is essential to.NET development, but not all exceptions are equal. Some, like NullReferenceException, surprise developers with unclear stack traces and production crashes. Others, such as MySQLException or HttpRequestException, often point to issues like resource mismanagement or network failures. At Raygun, we've worked with teams around the world to monitor and fix software issues, giving us deep insight into how exceptions occur and how to handle them effectively.

Seamless error monitoring with Spring Boot and Raygun

This guest post comes from long-time Raygun customer Midtrans, a leading payment gateway in Southeast Asia. As Midtrans grew, so did the number of applications requiring error monitoring. To tackle the challenges of scaling and standardizing Raygun across multiple teams and services, they created a custom Spring Boot starter for Raygun. Now, Midtrans is excited to share this open-source Spring Boot auto-configuration with the community.
