Fast-growing software companies are building data applications for a variety of uses, from marketing apps that provide customer insights, to IoT apps that handle device feedback, and data analytics apps that process both historical and near real-time data. But developers often face obstacles when building, designing, and supporting applications that need to parse large volumes of information.

Colin Hemmings, Product Manager at Bitrise introduces Trace, the new application performance monitoring (APM) solution we are building here at Bitrise Trace is monitoring made specifically for mobile, helping you catch bugs before they reach your users. With Trace, you’ll be able to have a complete view of these issues with full context, so that you can assess, reproduce, and fix them as quickly as possible.

As important as adding new features, app developers need to start placing more emphasis on the security aspect of the applications they design. After all, more app features mean more data residing within an app. Without proper security controls in place, that data can be vulnerable to intruders.
