Productivity in CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS enables users, including both managers and developers, to understand pipeline group performance within a given timeline.
Filtering Productivity
Productivity displays pipeline group performance within a given timeline. Select a pipeline group to filter the entire dashboard, and a timeline duration to filter most views.
In addition to filtering by duration, DORA metrics and Commits trend allow you to filter by comparing with other groups or by pipeline. You can also filter by the CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS user (Engineer) in Commits trend.
Select the timeline duration to be any of the following:
-
24 hours
-
48 hours
-
7 days (default)
-
1 month
-
3 months
-
All time
There is no filter for the Current builds view. |
To filter a Productivity view:
-
From the CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS Home page, select .
-
Select a pipeline group from the Group options on the upper right of
. -
Select from the Duration options on the upper right of a given view.
-
If applicable, select one of the Filters options on the upper right of either the DORA metrics or Commits trend views. To learn more, refer to DORA metrics or Commits trend, respectively.
-
Select Compare with other groups to compare with other pipeline groups.
-
Select Pipeline to view graphs of commits to specific pipelines.
-
Select Engineer to view graphs of commits by specific users (for Commits trend view only).
-
You are displaying data filtered by your selections.

In Productivity, the following views are displayed:

Projects overview
The Projects overview provides, for each project, a doughnut graph of number of issues to do, in progress, and deployed to each environment. The number and percentage of issues completed is also displayed.
Display All or filter by any combination of:
-
Task
-
Epic
-
Bug
-
Story
Each blue number links to an issue list displaying:
-
Issue ID
-
Issue type
-
Summary
-
Assignee
-
Status

Development overview
The Development overview provides the number and percentage of commits, builds, and deployments over a selected period of time, in pie graph format.
-
The commits graph summarizes how many commits went into production and how many are still in progress.
-
The builds graph summarizes successful and failed builds.
-
The deployments graph summarizes percentages of deployments to each environment.
-
The number next to
Increase or
Decrease is the percentage and number change from the previous timeframe.

Deployments
Deployments summarizes deployments with a bar graph for each environment. Successes, failures, and hotfixes are all displayed for the selected duration.
The number next to Increase or
Decrease is the percentage change in deployment success rate from the previous timeframe.
Select a bar on the graph to view the number of successful, failed, or hotfixed deployments for a given date.

DORA metrics
DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) metrics can measure performance of DevOps teams, and CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS incorporates these metrics into
.The four key DORA metrics are:
-
Deployment frequency
-
Deployment lead time
-
Mean time to recover (MTTR)
-
Failure rate
Each DORA metric view has a performance rating, from one to four . Select the
to configure the DORA metrics thresholds.
An example configuration for deployment frequency performance, as measured by the number of deployments over time, is:
Star rating | Name | Definition |
---|---|---|
|
Elite |
> One per day |
|
High |
Once daily to > once weekly |
|
Medium |
Once weekly to > once monthly |
Low |
Once monthly to > once every six months |

Accessing and filtering DORA metrics views
You can filter the four DORA metrics views by duration and by comparing with other groups or by pipeline. Select any number of options, or select All, and they are displayed separately on the graphs.
To access and filter DORA metrics views:
-
From the CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS Home page, select .
-
Select a pipeline group from the Group options on the upper right of
. -
Select from the Duration options on the upper right of the DORA metrics view.
-
(Optional) Select one of the Filters options on the upper right. The default view displays commits from all pipelines and all users within a single pipeline group.
-
Select Compare with other groups to compare commits of the selected pipeline group with other pipeline groups. Hover on a graph point to view the date range, group name, and number of commits.

You are displaying a DORA metrics view of data filtered by your selections.
Frequency
The deployment frequency view depicts the total number of commits that finish a CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS pipeline and go into production over a selected timeframe.

Lead time
The deployment lead time view depicts on average how long it takes for commits finish a CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS pipeline and go into production.

Commits trend
The Commits trend view displays a line graph of the number of commits in a given period of time. You can also compare with other pipeline groups, or filter by either Pipeline or Engineer (user). Select any number of options, or select All, and they are displayed separately on the graph.
To filter a Commits trend view:

Actionable insights
CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS analyzes your pipeline group data and develops actionable insights. Actionable insights are helpful to determine what actions need to be taken or how one should think about an issue.
There are three types of insights:
-
Approvals
-
Test results
-
Pipeline stages
