Backend Performance

Learn how to use Sentry's Backend Performance tool to monitor things like queries, outbound API requests, caches, and queues.

This view is only available on Team and Business plans. Team plans can access the last 7 days of data, while Business plans can access the last 90 days. To enable extended data access, upgrade to the Business or Enterprise plan.

Sentry's Backend Performance page gives you an overview of the health of your application. You'll be able to see things like the Most Time-Consuming Queries, Most Time-Consuming Domains, p50 and p75 Duration, and so on.

You can also dive deeper into Queries, Outbound API Requests, Caches, and Queues to get detailed information about potential issues affecting your application's health. In addition to having a dedicated space to monitor backend performance, you can also look at Sentry's Insights tab to monitor frontend, mobile, and AI performance.
