About Blackfire

Blackfire.io empowers PHP developers to continuously measure and improve their app’s performance in development, testing, staging and production. It makes it possible to drill down to function/method call level to understand and fix performance bottlenecks. Its wide variety of automation options makes it a breathe to add it to a development and testing workflow. The Blackfire Player, a powerful Open Source Web Crawler, Web Tester, and Web Scraper enables teams to setup a fully automated testing pipeline. Blackfire's unique profiling and monitoring technologies are combined to offer what you always missed: actionable reports, rather than bare metrics. Monitoring is a lightweight performance measurement technique that requires no action from developers and warns you if ever something goes wrong. Blackfire Monitoring is fully integrated with Blackfire Profiler. Profiling enables developers to dig down to the root cause of performance issues in the code.

Scout Monitoring

Scout Monitoring is Application Performance Monitoring (APM) that finds what you can't see in charts. Scout APM is application performance monitoring that streamlines troubleshooting by helping developers find and fix performance issues before customers ever see them. With real-time alerting, a developer-centric UI, and tracing logic that ties bottlenecks directly to source code, Scout APM helps you spend less time debugging and more time building a great product. Quickly identify, prioritize, and resolve performance problems – memory bloat, N+1 queries, slow database queries, and more – with an agent that instruments the dependencies you need at a fraction of the overhead. Scout APM is built for developers, by developers, and monitors Ruby, PHP, Python, Node.js, and Elixir applications.
