bitdrift is live on AWS Marketplace! 🎉 ☁️
Mobile teams can capture unlimited telemetry at lower cost, store only what matters, and resolve bugs faster. No app update required.
Get started fast with full‑fidelity mobile observability: blog.bitdrift.io/post/aws-mar...
Thanks Austin! ✨
Great evening with the mobile community at the Mobile Engineering Summit: lightning talks, a panel on performance, reliability & AI, and the kind of energy that makes it worth doing again.
Stay tuned for our next Summit in a city near you! 🙌
Congrats! That’s great news!
Ah, congrats, that’s awesome news!
The Capture SDK is now running in 1B real-world environments! 🎉
Traditional observability tools send large volumes of data to centralized systems. Capture stores data on-device, giving mobile teams control over what gets sent and when.

🎙️ New Beyond the Noise: our first two-guest episode.
Lauren Darcey & Eric Kuck (Infinite Retry Labs, ex-Reddit) on mobile at scale: why your team is already on-call without knowing it, the systemic issues you only uncover at millions of users, and so much more: buff.ly/zCtX1uM
there's a general antipathy to AI here that's really unfortunate. see attie's release and response from a lot of users.
plus network effects, and the ability to post long "articles" are other inputs.
Maybe starterpacks + attie and ai hater blocklists would help if you provide that at signup.
New episode is live with one of my role models, @kelseyhightower.com. This is a great chat about the impact of AI on our industry. Check it out!

Lettermatic ✕ GitHub Next: the inside story of Monaspace, a truly groundbreaking advancement for how we display code. We knew that Lettermatic would go deep, but we were still amazed by their level of knowledge and craft.

Most mobile teams know when a critical flow is degrading. They just can't tell you why.
bitdrift follows that journey on-device, without sampling, and surfaces the full context when something fails. Learn more about Critical User Journeys: blog.bitdrift.io/post/critica...
Zuper went from stitching together crash and analytics tools to full on-device visibility across complex mobile workflows.
With bitdrift, they now catch issues before they reach customers.

📣 Announcing wide availability of bitdrift's Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) for AWS!
Enterprise teams can now choose from 3 deployment options depending on data ownership and compliance needs. 🔗 blog.bitdrift.io/post/announc... #MobileObservability
🎙️ New episode of Beyond the Noise!
Chick-fil-A's volume doesn't just stress the kitchen it stresses the tech stack.
Brian Chambers (Chief Architect) built the answer: Kubernetes inside of 3,500+ restaurants – one of the industry's largest edge computing deployments.

I imagine in ram prices come down this will happen on the next rev.
Great interview!
If you've built an Android app in the last decade, you've almost certainly shipped Jesse Wilson's code to your users.
🎙️Our newest Beyond the Noise episode with @swank.ca just dropped – tracing the open-source decisions that shaped modern Android!
🎧 Listen today:
Your app is 99% crash-free. Great… but are users happy?
Slow checkouts, hanging searches, stuttering playback – p99 issues often invisible to dashboards but obvious in churn.
🔗 Check out our new post on the gap between crash-free rates and actual user experience:
Any of these, or in combo:
Sugar: I usually use carrots, fish them out at the end, or even a bit of ketchup
Fat: Butter or cream mixed in
You could also try a pinch or two of baking soda. haven't done this before, but seen a few articles on it.
Is OpenTelemetry the foundation for mobile observability? Not really. 🔍
OTel standardizes telemetry, but mobile has unique constraints. bitdrift stores telemetry on-device, retrieves only what matters, correlates with backend traces when investigation requires it. ⚡

🚩 New in bitdrift Capture: feature flag support!
See which flags and variants were exposed when crashes occurred. Filter issues by experiment. Build workflows that match on specific feature flag states.
Full details: blog.bitdrift.io/post/announc...
this has always been true. every large tech transition has had the naysayers, as well as the hype guys. I think it's just faster this time.
What are you using for dictation?
🎙️ New Beyond the Noise episode alert!
Hear Gabriel Savit, Co-founder & CEO of Runway, on why mobile releases stay painfully manual, why checklists don’t fix release chaos, and a surprising “automation paradox".

and a great way to lose weight!
How is the world's largest storage system, AWS S3 built? Mai-Lan Tomsen Bukovec, who has been heading up S3 for 13 years (!) S3's scale is something else (tens of millions of hard drives, eleven 9s of durability (!!) and heavy usage of formal methods, amongst others.)
