Summary

Python 3 Compatibility: What To Know` Python 3 is a backwards-incompatible language, requiring developers to backport its features into Python 2 via compatibility measures. The platform has been updated to be compatible with Python 3.6, which allows for integrating third-party dependencies that rely on Python 3 and enables type hinting, a formal solution indicating different values within code. This update also brings Sentry closer to scaling by allowing for more efficient data sharing between processes through the multiprocessing/shared_memory module, which is part of Python's future plans in version 3.8, offering potential CPU savings and memory reductions.
