DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) metrics can measure performance of DevOps teams. The CloudBees platform displays each of four key DORA metrics with an associated percentile performance rating, as well as 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.
Access DORA metrics
Filter the four DORA metrics views by duration and by comparing them with other groups or by workflow.
To access and filter DORA metrics views:
-
Select the next to Analytics on the left pane, and then select DORA metrics.
-
Select the next to Configurations on the left pane, and then select Environments.
-
Select the next to Components on the left pane, and then select a Component for the selected environment.
-
Specify deploy step as kind:deploy in workflow.yml.
-
Specify the environment name such as environment:staging, on the job level.
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 4. 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:
-
Run Id
-
Run start time (UTC)
-
Deployed on (UTC)
-
Lead time
-
Component
-
Workflow
-
-
Deployment Lead time: The reading depicts that it takes 26 hours to deploy from the time the PR is approved.
-
Change failure rate:The reading tells how much percentage the deployments fail.
-
MTTR: The reading depicts how much time it takes for the failed deployments to resolve.
