Scout Monitoring

New case study: CASA + Ruby for Good are proving that open source and volunteer developers can transform social justice. - Built a multi-tenant platform for CASA organizations - Matched senior mentors with early-career devs - Freed advocates to focus on kids, not paperwork Learn more: https://buff.ly/8P9SPMA Big kudos to @RubyForGood and the volunteers who made it happen.

🚀 We’re excited to announce Scout’s new MCP server! AI is changing how developers code, and monitoring hasn’t kept up. With Scout’s MCP server, we’re taking the first step toward closing the loop between app performance data and AI coding assistants. Now your assistant can: -Access errors, logs, and traces in natural language -Troubleshoot issues with full context -Suggest (or even push) fixes as pull requests No more black-box debugging. No more wasted cycles. Just faster, clearer insights — and fewer late-night firefights. This is the future of monitoring: AI-native, assistant-driven, and developer-first.

We’re excited to announce the launch of Error Monitoring in Scout. 🎉 Over the past year, Scout has made some significant improvements to help developers find and fix performance issues even faster. Not just an APM anymore, Scout is now a complete platform that allows devs to: -Catch errors as soon as they happen -See logs, traces, and performance side by side -Fix issues faster without juggling multiple dashboards It’s everything you need to catch bugs, track performance, and make sense of logs, all in one simple tool.

We just shipped error monitoring to GA. No more finding out your app is broken from an angry user. Get alerted when things go sideways, see exactly what happened, and fix it before your users even notice. Because reactive debugging is not a business strategy. Want to learn more?

"Scout has been a massive help in identifying bottlenecks in our application infrastructure as we scale. We’ve been able to identify memory leaks and N+1 queries to shave seconds off our most expensive queries and to improve the reliability of our site. We recently changed web servers and Scout’s dashboards gave us the real-time data we needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the changeover.” -Brett Kushner COO, Don't Tell Comedy

“Scout can track and provide developers with insights for performance improvement. This helps us deliver a better experience to our users.” -Cookpad https://lnkd.in/eJ8rmDBp

Before you commit to that shiny new tech stack... Former Flexcar CTO Freedom Dumlao shares the crucial questions every startup should ask before making binding architecture decisions. His advice? Start with your values, not the latest framework. Key insight: "Choose boring tech" for parts that don't need to scale, and save the complexity for where it actually matters.

56k lines of code. 2,100+ components. One massive performance challenge. DynaBliss built an incredible medical practice management platform serving 200+ practices with AI Scribe, telehealth, and HIPAA-compliant EHR. But with that complexity came performance bottlenecks that could impact patient care. The solution? Scout APM delivered game-changing results: ✅ 70% faster requests ✅ Eliminated N+1 query nightmares ✅ Real-time insights that became their dev team's daily go-to "Let's go to Scout" is now their team catchphrase! See how they turned a complex beast of an application into a performance powerhouse: https://lnkd.in/eWmCepXS #PerformanceOptimization #HealthTech #SoftwareDevelopment #APM #MedTech

Chaskiq's devs were fighting N+1 queries and database bottlenecks that were invisible in local testing. New Relic showed them charts but not solutions. Scout showed them the exact code lines to fix. Result: 2x performance boost. https://lnkd.in/e7WbyWuZ
