Sentry has updated its platform to be compatible with Python 3.6, marking the retirement of Python 2 and enabling integration with third-party dependencies such as Celery and Django. This update introduces type hinting, a formal solution that helps the interpreter understand code behavior, and lays the groundwork for future scalability improvements using multithreading and multiprocessing. The updated platform aims to make Sentry more efficient and compatible for users' needs, offering a 12% CPU savings on Django and 30% memory savings on Celery.
