When it comes to software development, understanding metrics is crucial for ensuring high-quality and efficient deliveries. Among the key DORA metrics is the Change Failure Rate (CFR), which plays a vital role in measuring the impact of changes on the system. But what exactly does this metric evaluate, and how can we use it to optimize…

When talking about performance and efficiency in software engineering, some metrics are essential. One of the most important is Mean Time to Recover (MTTR). In the context of DORA Metrics, MTTR provides valuable insights into a team’s resilience and recovery capability. In this article, we’ll help you understand a bit more about this metric. What…

DORA Metrics are key for assessing the efficiency of software development teams. Developed by the DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) team, these metrics provide valuable insights into software delivery performance and quality. Here, we’ll help you understand how to measure each of these metrics, what counts as low, medium, and high performance, and provide practical…

If you’re just starting to implement DORA metrics, congrats! These metrics are powerful tools for improving your engineering team’s performance and efficiency. However, many people make common mistakes during the process that can undermine the full potential these metrics offer. In this post, we’re going to cover the main mistakes people make when adopting DORA…

Ever wondered how often your development team deploys code to production? That’s what we call deployment frequency—one of the key indicators of DevOps efficiency. A high deployment frequency usually means a team is agile, continuously delivering value to users. In this article, we’ll break down what deployment frequency is, why it matters, the benefits, the…

The 2024 DORA Accelerate State of DevOps Report is packed with insights that can reshape how tech teams work. This year, the spotlight was on the impact of AI and the changes it has brought to software engineering. I’ll give you an overview of the key points so you can decide if it’s worth diving…

DORA Metrics, also known as DevOps Research and Assessment Metrics, are a set of quantitative and qualitative indicators that analyze the efficiency and effectiveness of software development and delivery processes in the context of DevOps practices. Based on research and studies conducted by the DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) team, now part of Google Cloud,…
