Lightrun Product Updates : H1 2024
Throughout the first half of 2024, Lightrun has focused on developing a range of solutions and improvements aimed at enhancing developer observability and live debugging. These advancements help organizations significantly reduce their MTTR for complex issues while boosting developer productivity.
Read more below the main new features as well as the key product enhancements that were released in H1 of 2024!
📢 NEW! Lightrun LogOptimizer User Experience Enhancements
Lightrun LogOptimizer enables developers to scan their source code for inefficient and redundant static log statements. By using LogOptimizer, engineering teams can significantly reduce logging costs and maintain cleaner source code. The recent update enhances functionality by allowing developers to aggregate and filter results by their source path, and directly navigate to problematic log statements from the scan results. Additionally, developers can now delete logs directly from the LogOptimizer tab within the Lightrun IDE plugin, streamlining the log management process.

- Handling complex and nested objects

These enhancements were implemented to ensure comprehensive privacy protection within complex data structures as well as simplifying the use of PII redaction within the platform. Lightrun PII Redaction helps bolster compliance efforts and minimizes the risk of data breaches.
