DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) metrics can measure the performance of DevOps teams. The CloudBees platform displays each of the four key DORA metrics with an associated percentile performance rating and the percentage change from the previous timeframe.
The four key DORA metrics:
-
Deployment frequency
-
Deployment lead time
-
Change failure rate
-
Mean time to restore (MTTR)
DORA metrics thresholds are configurable.

Explore Deployment frequency and MTTR
-
Deployment frequency: The reading depicts the average number of successful deployments for the selected component and environment, per day.
Figure 6. Example Successful Deployments list.Select the Average per day number links to display a list of successful deployments, for the selected Component and Environment.
Each list includes:
