Phase 1: Metrics Definition & Data Source Integration (25%)

1.1 DORA Metrics Definition

Four Key Metrics (Google's DevOps Research and Assessment):

1. Deployment Frequency (DF)

   • Definition: How often code is deployed to production
   • Elite: Multiple deploys per day
   • High: Once per day to once per week
   • Medium: Once per week to once per month
   • Low: Less than once per month

2. Lead Time for Changes (LT)

   • Definition: Time from code commit to production deployment
   • Elite: Less than 1 day
   • High: 1 day to 1 week
   • Medium: 1 week to 1 month
   • Low: More than 1 month

3. Mean Time to Restore (MTTR)

   • Definition: Time to recover from production failures
   • Elite: Less than 1 hour
   • High: Less than 1 day
   • Medium: 1 day to 1 week
   • Low: More than 1 week

4. Change Failure Rate (CFR)

   • Definition: % of deployments causing production failures
   • Elite: 0-15%
   • High: 16-30%
   • Medium: 31-45%
   • Low: More than 45%

1.2 Data Source Integration

Primary sources:

• GitHub/GitLab: Commits, PRs, merge times, deployment tags
• CI/CD Systems: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI (build/deploy logs)
• Incident Management: PagerDuty, Opsgenie (incident timestamps)
• Monitoring: Prometheus, Datadog, New Relic (performance metrics)
• Project Management: Jira, Linear (issue lifecycle)

Data extraction patterns:

// GitHub API: Deployment events
GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/deployments
Filter: environment=production, created_at >= start_date

// CI/CD: Workflow runs
GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/runs
Filter: event=push, status=completed, conclusion=success

// PagerDuty: Incidents
GET /incidents
Filter: urgency=high, status=resolved, created_at >= start_date

1.3 Custom Metrics Definition

Business KPIs:

• Active users (DAU/MAU)
• Revenue metrics (MRR, ARR, churn rate)
• Feature adoption (% users using feature X)
• Customer satisfaction (NPS, CSAT)

Engineering KPIs:

• Code quality (test coverage, code review time)
• Infrastructure (uptime, latency p50/p95/p99)
• Cost metrics (cloud spend, cost per deploy)
• Team velocity (story points, cycle time)

Custom metric schema:

metric:
  name: feature_adoption_rate
  description: "Percentage of users who used feature X"
  type: percentage
  data_source: analytics_db
  query: "SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT user_id) FROM events WHERE feature='X'"
  aggregation: daily
  alert_threshold: < 10%
  owner: product_team

Phase 2: Collection Pipeline Implementation (30%)

2.1 Automated Data Collection

Polling-based collection:

• Schedule: Cron jobs (every 5 minutes for real-time, hourly for trends)
• Retry logic: Exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, max 60s)
• Error handling: Log failures, alert if >5% collection failure rate

Event-driven collection:

• Webhooks from GitHub, CI/CD systems (deployment completed, incident created)
• Pub/Sub patterns (Kafka, RabbitMQ) for high-volume events
• Stream processing (Apache Flink, Kafka Streams) for real-time aggregation

2.2 Metric Calculation Logic

Deployment Frequency:

async calculateDeploymentFrequency(startDate: Date, endDate: Date): Promise<number> {
  // Get all production deployments
  const deployments = await github.getDeployments({
    environment: 'production',
    created_at: { gte: startDate, lte: endDate },
  });

  const days = (endDate - startDate) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24);
  return deployments.length / days; // Deploys per day
}

Lead Time for Changes:

async calculateLeadTime(startDate: Date, endDate: Date): Promise<number> {
  const deployments = await github.getDeployments({ /* filters */ });

  const leadTimes = await Promise.all(
    deployments.map(async (deploy) => {
      // Find first commit in this deployment
      const commits = await github.getDeploymentCommits(deploy.id);
      const firstCommit = commits.sort((a, b) => a.timestamp - b.timestamp)[0];

      return deploy.created_at - firstCommit.timestamp;
    })
  );

  // Return median lead time in hours
  return median(leadTimes) / (1000 * 60 * 60);
}

Mean Time to Restore:

async calculateMTTR(startDate: Date, endDate: Date): Promise<number> {
  const incidents = await pagerduty.getIncidents({
    urgency: 'high',
    statuses: ['resolved'],
    since: startDate,
    until: endDate,
  });

  const resolutionTimes = incidents.map(incident =>
    new Date(incident.resolved_at) - new Date(incident.created_at)
  );

  return mean(resolutionTimes) / (1000 * 60 * 60); // Hours
}

Change Failure Rate:

async calculateChangeFailureRate(startDate: Date, endDate: Date): Promise<number> {
  const deployments = await github.getDeployments({ /* filters */ });

  const failures = deployments.filter(async (deploy) => {
    // Check if incident was created within 24h of deployment
    const incidents = await pagerduty.getIncidents({
      since: deploy.created_at,
      until: new Date(deploy.created_at.getTime() + 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000),
    });

    return incidents.length > 0;
  });

  return (failures.length / deployments.length) * 100; // Percentage
}

2.3 Data Storage & Retention

Time-series database (Prometheus, InfluxDB, TimescaleDB):

• Store metrics with timestamps
• Retention policy: 1 year (downsample older data: 5m → 1h → 1d granularity)
• Compression: Reduce storage cost (10x compression typical)

Data schema:

CREATE TABLE metrics (
  timestamp TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
  metric_name TEXT NOT NULL,
  metric_value DOUBLE PRECISION,
  labels JSONB, -- {team: "backend", service: "api"}
  PRIMARY KEY (timestamp, metric_name, labels)
);

-- Hypertable for automatic partitioning by time
SELECT create_hypertable('metrics', 'timestamp');

-- Retention policy: Keep 1 year, downsample after 30 days
SELECT add_retention_policy('metrics', INTERVAL '1 year');
SELECT add_continuous_aggregate_policy('metrics_hourly', start_offset => INTERVAL '30 days');

2.4 Aggregation & Rollups

Pre-computed aggregations (for dashboard performance):

-- Daily rollup
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW metrics_daily AS
SELECT
  time_bucket('1 day', timestamp) AS day,
  metric_name,
  labels,
  avg(metric_value) AS avg_value,
  min(metric_value) AS min_value,
  max(metric_value) AS max_value,
  stddev(metric_value) AS stddev_value
FROM metrics
GROUP BY day, metric_name, labels;

-- Refresh every hour
SELECT add_continuous_aggregate_policy('metrics_daily', start_offset => INTERVAL '1 hour');

Phase 3: Dashboards, Alerts & Reporting (25%)

3.1 Dashboard Generation

Grafana dashboard (JSON config):

{
  "dashboard": {
    "title": "DORA Metrics Dashboard",
    "panels": [
      {
        "title": "Deployment Frequency",
        "type": "stat",
        "targets": [{
          "expr": "rate(deployments_total[7d])",
          "legendFormat": "Deploys per day"
        }],
        "fieldConfig": {
          "thresholds": {
            "mode": "absolute",
            "steps": [
              { "color": "red", "value": 0 },
              { "color": "yellow", "value": 0.14 },
              { "color": "green", "value": 1 }
            ]
          }
        }
      },
      {
        "title": "Lead Time Trend",
        "type": "timeseries",
        "targets": [{
          "expr": "lead_time_hours{quantile=\"0.5\"}",
          "legendFormat": "p50 (median)"
        }]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Custom React dashboard:

// components/DORADashboard.tsx
import { useQuery } from 'react-query';
import { LineChart, BarChart, Stat } from 'recharts';

export function DORADashboard() {
  const { data: metrics } = useQuery('dora-metrics', fetchDORAMetrics);

  return (
    <div className="grid grid-cols-4 gap-4">
      <Stat
        title="Deployment Frequency"
        value={metrics.deploymentFrequency.toFixed(2)}
        unit="per day"
        trend={metrics.deploymentFrequencyTrend}
        threshold={{ elite: 1, high: 0.14, medium: 0.03 }}
      />
      <Stat
        title="Lead Time"
        value={metrics.leadTime.toFixed(1)}
        unit="hours"
        trend={metrics.leadTimeTrend}
        threshold={{ elite: 24, high: 168, medium: 720 }}
      />
      {/* More stats... */}
    </div>
  );
}

3.2 Alerting Configuration

Alert rules (Prometheus AlertManager):

groups:
  - name: dora_alerts
    rules:
      - alert: DeploymentFrequencyDropped
        expr: rate(deployments_total[7d]) < 0.14
        for: 24h
        labels:
          severity: warning
          team: engineering
        annotations:
          summary: "Deployment frequency dropped below 1/week"
          description: "Current rate: {{ $value }} deploys/day (target: >1/week)"

      - alert: ChangeFailureRateHigh
        expr: change_failure_rate > 30
        for: 1h
        labels:
          severity: critical
          team: sre
        annotations:
          summary: "Change failure rate exceeds 30%"
          description: "CFR: {{ $value }}% (target: <15%)"

      - alert: MTTRExceeded
        expr: mttr_hours > 24
        for: 1h
        labels:
          severity: critical
          team: oncall
        annotations:
          summary: "MTTR exceeded 24 hours"
          description: "Current MTTR: {{ $value }} hours"

Alert routing:

route:
  group_by: ['alertname', 'team']
  receiver: 'slack-engineering'
  routes:
    - match:
        severity: critical
      receiver: 'pagerduty-oncall'
    - match:
        team: sre
      receiver: 'slack-sre'

receivers:
  - name: 'slack-engineering'
    slack_configs:
      - api_url: 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/...'
        channel: '#engineering-alerts'
        title: '{{ .GroupLabels.alertname }}'
        text: '{{ range .Alerts }}{{ .Annotations.summary }}\n{{ end }}'

  - name: 'pagerduty-oncall'
    pagerduty_configs:
      - service_key: 'xxxxx'

3.3 Automated Reporting

Weekly DORA report (Markdown):

async generateWeeklyReport(): Promise<string> {
  const metrics = await this.collectDORAMetrics();
  const previousWeek = await this.collectDORAMetrics(/* last week */);

  const trend = (current: number, previous: number) => {
    const change = ((current - previous) / previous) * 100;
    return change > 0 ? `📈 +${change.toFixed(1)}%` : `📉 ${change.toFixed(1)}%`;
  };

  return `
# Weekly DORA Metrics Report
**Week of**: ${formatDate(new Date())}

## Summary
${this.getRating(metrics)} performance this week.

## Metrics
| Metric | Current | Previous Week | Trend | Target |
|--------|---------|---------------|-------|--------|
| Deployment Frequency | ${metrics.deploymentFrequency.toFixed(2)}/day | ${previousWeek.deploymentFrequency.toFixed(2)}/day | ${trend(metrics.deploymentFrequency, previousWeek.deploymentFrequency)} | >1/day (Elite) |
| Lead Time | ${metrics.leadTime.toFixed(1)} hours | ${previousWeek.leadTime.toFixed(1)} hours | ${trend(metrics.leadTime, previousWeek.leadTime)} | <24h (Elite) |
| MTTR | ${metrics.mttr.toFixed(1)} hours | ${previousWeek.mttr.toFixed(1)} hours | ${trend(metrics.mttr, previousWeek.mttr)} | <1h (Elite) |
| Change Failure Rate | ${metrics.cfr.toFixed(1)}% | ${previousWeek.cfr.toFixed(1)}% | ${trend(metrics.cfr, previousWeek.cfr)} | <15% (Elite) |

## Key Insights
${this.generateInsights(metrics, previousWeek)}

## Recommendations
${this.generateRecommendations(metrics)}
  `.trim();
}

3.4 Correlation Analysis

Identify metric relationships:

async analyzeCorrelations(): Promise<Correlation[]> {
  const metrics = await this.loadAllMetrics();

  // Calculate Pearson correlation coefficient
  const correlations = [
    { x: 'deployment_frequency', y: 'lead_time' },
    { x: 'test_coverage', y: 'change_failure_rate' },
    { x: 'code_review_time', y: 'lead_time' },
  ].map(pair => ({
    ...pair,
    coefficient: this.pearsonCorrelation(metrics[pair.x], metrics[pair.y]),
  }));

  // Strong correlation: |r| > 0.7
  return correlations.filter(c => Math.abs(c.coefficient) > 0.7);
}

// Example output:
// - deployment_frequency ↔ lead_time: r=-0.82 (strong negative)
//   → More frequent deploys correlate with shorter lead times
// - test_coverage ↔ change_failure_rate: r=-0.76 (strong negative)
//   → Higher test coverage correlates with fewer failures

Phase 4: Trend Analysis & Forecasting (20%)

4.1 Time Series Analysis

Moving averages (smooth out noise):

calculateMovingAverage(data: number[], windowSize: number): number[] {
  return data.map((_, i, arr) => {
    const start = Math.max(0, i - windowSize + 1);
    const window = arr.slice(start, i + 1);
    return mean(window);
  });
}

// 7-day moving average for deployment frequency
const deployments = await this.getDeploymentHistory(90); // Last 90 days
const ma7 = this.calculateMovingAverage(deployments, 7);

Anomaly detection (detect unusual spikes/drops):

detectAnomalies(data: number[]): { index: number; value: number; zscore: number }[] {
  const avg = mean(data);
  const stdDev = standardDeviation(data);

  return data
    .map((value, index) => ({
      index,
      value,
      zscore: (value - avg) / stdDev,
    }))
    .filter(point => Math.abs(point.zscore) > 3); // >3σ is anomaly
}

// Alert if deployment frequency suddenly drops
const anomalies = this.detectAnomalies(deploymentHistory);
if (anomalies.length > 0) {
  await slack.sendAlert(`Deployment frequency anomaly detected: ${anomalies[0].value}`);
}

4.2 Forecasting

Linear regression (predict future values):

forecastLinear(data: number[], periods: number): number[] {
  // Simple linear regression: y = mx + b
  const n = data.length;
  const x = Array.from({ length: n }, (_, i) => i);
  const sumX = sum(x);
  const sumY = sum(data);
  const sumXY = sum(x.map((xi, i) => xi * data[i]));
  const sumX2 = sum(x.map(xi => xi ** 2));

  const m = (n * sumXY - sumX * sumY) / (n * sumX2 - sumX ** 2);
  const b = (sumY - m * sumX) / n;

  // Predict next 'periods' values
  return Array.from({ length: periods }, (_, i) => m * (n + i) + b);
}

// Forecast deployment frequency for next 30 days
const forecast = this.forecastLinear(deploymentHistory, 30);

Exponential smoothing (better for seasonal data):

forecastExponentialSmoothing(data: number[], alpha: number = 0.3, periods: number): number[] {
  let forecast = data[0];
  const forecasts = [forecast];

  // Historical smoothing
  for (let i = 1; i < data.length; i++) {
    forecast = alpha * data[i] + (1 - alpha) * forecast;
    forecasts.push(forecast);
  }

  // Future forecasts (assume trend continues)
  for (let i = 0; i < periods; i++) {
    forecasts.push(forecast);
  }

  return forecasts.slice(data.length);
}

4.3 SLI/SLO Tracking

Service Level Indicators (SLIs):

slis:
  - name: api_availability
    description: "% of successful API requests"
    query: "sum(rate(http_requests_total{status='200'}[5m])) / sum(rate(http_requests_total[5m])) * 100"
    target: 99.9

  - name: api_latency_p95
    description: "95th percentile API latency"
    query: "histogram_quantile(0.95, rate(http_request_duration_seconds_bucket[5m]))"
    target: 0.5  # 500ms

  - name: deployment_success_rate
    description: "% of deployments without rollback"
    query: "deployments_successful / deployments_total * 100"
    target: 95

Error Budget calculation:

calculateErrorBudget(slo: number, actualAvailability: number, windowDays: number): {
  budgetRemaining: number;
  budgetSpent: number;
  daysRemaining: number;
} {
  const allowedDowntime = (100 - slo) / 100 * windowDays * 24 * 60; // minutes
  const actualDowntime = (100 - actualAvailability) / 100 * windowDays * 24 * 60;
  const budgetSpent = (actualDowntime / allowedDowntime) * 100;

  return {
    budgetRemaining: 100 - budgetSpent,
    budgetSpent,
    daysRemaining: windowDays * (1 - budgetSpent / 100),
  };
}

// Example: 99.9% SLO over 30 days
const budget = this.calculateErrorBudget(99.9, 99.85, 30);
// { budgetRemaining: 66.7%, budgetSpent: 33.3%, daysRemaining: 20 days }

4.4 Continuous Improvement Tracking

Before/After analysis (measure impact of changes):

interface Intervention {
  date: Date;
  description: string;
  expectedImpact: string;
}

async measureInterventionImpact(intervention: Intervention): Promise<{
  before: DORAMetrics;
  after: DORAMetrics;
  improvement: Record<string, number>;
}> {
  const beforePeriod = { start: /* 30 days before */, end: intervention.date };
  const afterPeriod = { start: intervention.date, end: /* 30 days after */ };

  const before = await this.collectDORAMetrics(beforePeriod);
  const after = await this.collectDORAMetrics(afterPeriod);

  return {
    before,
    after,
    improvement: {
      deploymentFrequency: ((after.deploymentFrequency - before.deploymentFrequency) / before.deploymentFrequency) * 100,
      leadTime: ((before.leadTime - after.leadTime) / before.leadTime) * 100, // Negative is good
      mttr: ((before.mttr - after.mttr) / before.mttr) * 100,
      changeFailureRate: ((before.changeFailureRate - after.changeFailureRate) / before.changeFailureRate) * 100,
    },
  };
}

// Example: Measure impact of "Introduced automated testing"
const impact = await this.measureInterventionImpact({
  date: new Date('2024-09-01'),
  description: 'Introduced automated testing in CI/CD',
  expectedImpact: 'Reduce change failure rate',
});

// Result: CFR improved by 42% (from 28% to 16%)

Best Practices

bp-001: Automate Everything - No Manual Metric Collection

Problem: Manual metric collection is error-prone, time-consuming, and doesn't scale. Teams often forget to collect metrics or collect inconsistently.

Solution: Automate all metric collection with scheduled jobs:

# cron schedule for metrics collection
0 */5 * * * # Every 5 minutes: Real-time metrics (deployment status, incident count)
0 0 * * * # Daily: DORA metrics, active users, revenue
0 0 * * 1 # Weekly: Generate reports, send to leadership
0 0 1 * * # Monthly: Trend analysis, forecasting

Automation stack:

• Scheduled jobs: GitHub Actions, cron, Kubernetes CronJobs
• Event-driven: Webhooks (deployment completed → collect deployment frequency)
• Stream processing: Kafka + Flink for high-volume real-time metrics

Benefits:

• 100% consistency (never miss a metric)
• Real-time insights (not stale manual reports)
• Frees engineers from manual work
• Enables historical trending

---

bp-002: Store Metrics in Time-Series Database

Problem: Storing metrics in regular relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL) doesn't scale for time-series data and makes querying slow.

Solution: Use specialized time-series databases:

// TimescaleDB (PostgreSQL extension)
CREATE TABLE metrics (
  timestamp TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
  metric_name TEXT NOT NULL,
  metric_value DOUBLE PRECISION,
  labels JSONB
);

SELECT create_hypertable('metrics', 'timestamp');

// Efficient queries
SELECT
  time_bucket('1 hour', timestamp) AS hour,
  metric_name,
  avg(metric_value) AS avg_value
FROM metrics
WHERE timestamp >= NOW() - INTERVAL '7 days'
  AND metric_name = 'deployment_frequency'
GROUP BY hour, metric_name;

Database options:

• Prometheus: Industry standard for metrics (PromQL query language)
• InfluxDB: High-performance time-series DB
• TimescaleDB: PostgreSQL extension (familiar SQL, good for existing PG users)
• Graphite: Older but battle-tested

Benefits:

• 10-100x faster queries for time-series data
• Automatic downsampling (5m → 1h → 1d granularity)
• Built-in retention policies (auto-delete old data)
• Efficient compression (10x reduction typical)

---

bp-003: Define Clear Alert Thresholds

Problem: Metrics without alerts are just vanity metrics. Teams need to be notified when metrics degrade.

Solution: Set evidence-based alert thresholds:

alerts:
  - name: DeploymentFrequencyDropped
    condition: deployment_frequency < 0.14 # 1/week
    for: 24h # Must persist for 24h to avoid noise
    severity: warning
    action: Notify #engineering-leads

  - name: ChangeFailureRateCritical
    condition: change_failure_rate > 30%
    for: 1h
    severity: critical
    action: Page on-call engineer

  - name: MTTRExceeded
    condition: mttr_hours > 24
    for: immediate
    severity: critical
    action: Escalate to VP Engineering

Threshold guidelines:

• Use industry benchmarks (DORA research: Elite/High/Medium/Low)
• Adjust based on your team's baseline (don't set unrealistic targets)
• Use "for" duration to avoid alert fatigue (short-lived spikes don't trigger)
• Escalate severity based on business impact

---

bp-004: Visualize Trends, Not Just Current Values

Problem: Showing current metric values without context (trends, historical comparison) makes it hard to identify problems early.

Solution: Always show trends alongside current values:

// Dashboard component
<MetricCard
  title="Deployment Frequency"
  currentValue={metrics.deploymentFrequency}
  unit="per day"
  trend={{
    previousPeriod: 1.2,
    change: +18.3, // %
    direction: 'up',
  }}
  historicalData={last30DaysData} // Show sparkline
  threshold={{ elite: 1, target: 0.5 }}
/>

Visualization best practices:

• Show 7-day or 30-day trend lines
• Include year-over-year comparisons
• Annotate significant events (releases, incidents, process changes)
• Use color coding (green = above target, yellow = at risk, red = below target)

Example:

Deployment Frequency: 1.43/day ↑ +18.3% vs last week
───────────────────────────────────────
         ┌───┐
     ┌───┤   │
 ┌───┤   │   │
─┤   │   │   │   Target: 1.0/day (Elite)
 └───┴───┴───┘
 W1  W2  W3  W4

---

bp-005: Correlate Metrics to Find Root Causes

Problem: Metrics in isolation don't tell the full story. Teams need to understand relationships between metrics to identify root causes.

Solution: Calculate correlations and visualize relationships:

// Example correlations
async analyzeMetricCorrelations(): Promise<Insight[]> {
  const correlations = [
    { x: 'deployment_frequency', y: 'lead_time', coefficient: -0.82 },
    // Strong negative: More deploys → Shorter lead time

    { x: 'test_coverage', y: 'change_failure_rate', coefficient: -0.76 },
    // Strong negative: More tests → Fewer failures

    { x: 'code_review_time', y: 'lead_time', coefficient: 0.64 },
    // Moderate positive: Longer reviews → Longer lead time
  ];

  return correlations.map(c => ({
    title: `${c.x} ↔ ${c.y}`,
    correlation: c.coefficient,
    interpretation: this.interpretCorrelation(c.coefficient),
    recommendation: this.recommendAction(c),
  }));
}

Correlation insights:

• |r| > 0.7: Strong correlation (focus here for improvements)
• |r| 0.4-0.7: Moderate correlation (investigate further)
• |r| < 0.4: Weak or no correlation

Example insight:

🔍 Strong Negative Correlation Found
  test_coverage ↔ change_failure_rate: r = -0.76

Interpretation:
  Teams with >80% test coverage have 60% fewer failed deployments.

Recommendation:
  Increase test coverage from 65% to 80% to reduce CFR from 22% to 15%.

Problem: Tracking metrics that look good but don't drive decisions or actions.

Real Example: Company F tracked "total lines of code" and "total commits" as productivity metrics. Both numbers went up every month, but product quality declined and customer churn increased. Metrics didn't correlate with business outcomes.

Vanity metrics:

• Lines of code (doesn't measure quality or value)
• Total commits (doesn't account for meaningful changes)
• Total users (without activation or retention context)
• Page views (without conversion or engagement)

Correct Approach: Focus on actionable metrics:

// Actionable Metrics
interface ActionableKPIs {
  // Instead of "total users", track activation and retention
  activeUsersDAU: number;
  activationRate: number; // % users who completed onboarding
  day30Retention: number; // % users still active after 30 days

  // Instead of "total commits", track meaningful work
  deploymentFrequency: number; // Value delivered to customers
  leadTime: number; // Speed of value delivery

  // Instead of "page views", track business impact
  conversionRate: number; // % visitors who become customers
  customerLifetimeValue: number; // Revenue per customer
}

Test for vanity metric:

• Question: "If this metric improves by 50%, would the business be healthier?"
• If answer is unclear or "no" → It's a vanity metric

ap-002: Collecting Metrics But Never Reviewing Them

Problem: Teams collect comprehensive metrics but never look at dashboards or act on insights.

Real Example: Company G had a beautiful Grafana dashboard with 40+ metrics, updated real-time. After 6 months, usage logs showed: 2 people viewed it once. No action taken on any metric. When asked, team said "too busy to look at dashboards".

Symptoms:

• Dashboards exist but nobody looks at them
• Metrics collected but not discussed in team meetings
• No alerts configured (or alerts ignored)
• No process for acting on metric degradation

Correct Approach: Embed metrics in workflows:

1. Weekly review ritual:

   Every Monday 9am: Team reviews DORA metrics dashboard
   - Discuss trends (what improved/degraded?)
   - Identify action items (how to improve?)
   - Assign owners (who will fix this?)
   - Follow up next week (did we improve?)
   

2. Auto-generated reports:

   // Send weekly summary to Slack (no need to remember to check)
   cron.schedule('0 9 * * 1', async () => {
     const metrics = await collectDORAMetrics();
     const report = await generateReport(metrics);
     await slack.sendMessage('#engineering', report);
   });
   

3. Metric-driven OKRs:

   Q4 OKRs:
   - Key Result 1: Increase deployment frequency from 0.7/day to 1.2/day
   - Key Result 2: Reduce MTTR from 4.5h to <2h
   - Key Result 3: Decrease CFR from 18% to <15%
   
   (Metrics are the OKRs, not separate from them)

ap-003: Optimizing for Metrics Instead of Outcomes

Problem: Teams game metrics to hit targets without improving actual outcomes (Goodhart's Law: "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure").

Real Example: Company H set target: "Deployment frequency >5/day". Team responded by deploying trivial changes (whitespace, comment updates) to inflate metric. Actual customer value delivered didn't change.

Gaming examples:

• Increase deployment frequency: Deploy tiny, meaningless changes
• Reduce lead time: Merge PRs without proper review
• Reduce MTTR: Mark incidents as resolved without fixing root cause
• Increase test coverage: Write meaningless tests that don't catch bugs

Correct Approach: Pair metrics with quality gates:

// Good deployment counts:
// 1. Must include code changes (not just config/comments)
// 2. Must pass all tests (including integration tests)
// 3. Must have ≥1 approval from code review
async validateDeployment(deployment: Deployment): Promise<boolean> {
  const commits = await getDeploymentCommits(deployment.id);

  const hasCodeChanges = commits.some(c =>
    c.files.some(f => f.path.match(/\.(ts|js|py|rb|go)$/))
  );

  const testsPass = await getTestResults(deployment.id);

  const hasApproval = await getPRApprovals(commits[0].pr_number) >= 1;

  return hasCodeChanges && testsPass.passed && hasApproval;
}

Additional safeguards:

• Measure customer impact alongside metrics (NPS, churn, revenue)
• Spot-check samples (manually review 10 random deployments)
• Track second-order effects (e.g., if lead time drops, is quality also dropping?)

ap-004: No Retention Policy (Storing Metrics Forever)

Problem: Storing all metrics at full granularity forever leads to massive storage costs and slow queries.

Real Example: Company I stored 5-minute granularity metrics for 5 years. Storage cost: $50k/year. Query time for 1-year trend: 45 seconds. 99% of old data never queried.

Storage growth:

1 metric × 5-minute granularity × 1 year = 105,000 data points
100 metrics × 5-minute × 5 years = 52.5 million data points
1000 metrics × 5-minute × 5 years = 525 million data points

Correct Approach: Implement downsampling and retention policies:

-- Retention policy
SELECT add_retention_policy('metrics', INTERVAL '1 year');

-- Continuous aggregates (downsampling)
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW metrics_hourly AS
SELECT
  time_bucket('1 hour', timestamp) AS hour,
  metric_name,
  avg(metric_value) AS avg_value
FROM metrics
WHERE timestamp >= NOW() - INTERVAL '30 days'
GROUP BY hour, metric_name;

-- Policy: Keep raw data for 30 days, hourly for 1 year, daily forever
SELECT add_continuous_aggregate_policy('metrics_hourly',
  start_offset => INTERVAL '30 days',
  end_offset => INTERVAL '1 hour',
  schedule_interval => INTERVAL '1 hour'
);

Retention tiers:

• Last 7 days: 1-minute granularity (real-time debugging)
• Last 30 days: 5-minute granularity (recent trends)
• Last 1 year: 1-hour granularity (historical trends)
• Beyond 1 year: 1-day granularity (long-term patterns)

Benefits:

• 90% storage reduction (from 525M to 52M data points)
• 10x faster queries (less data to scan)
• Lower costs ($50k/year → $5k/year)

ap-005: Single Source of Truth Violation (Conflicting Metric Values)

Problem: Same metric calculated differently by different teams leads to confusion and distrust.

Real Example: Company J had 3 different "deployment frequency" values:

• Engineering dashboard: 1.8/day (from GitHub Actions logs)
• Product dashboard: 1.2/day (from Jira releases)
• Leadership report: 0.9/day (manual count by PM)

Executives lost trust in all metrics. Debates about "which number is right" consumed 2 hours/week.

Root causes:

• Different data sources (GitHub vs Jira vs manual)
• Different definitions (what counts as a "deployment"?)
• Different time ranges (UTC vs local time zones)
• Different calculation logic

Correct Approach: Establish single source of truth:

// 1. Centralized metric definitions
const METRIC_DEFINITIONS = {
  deployment_frequency: {
    definition: 'Number of deployments to production environment per day',
    data_source: 'GitHub Deployments API',
    filter: 'environment=production AND status=success',
    calculation: 'COUNT(deployments) / date_range_days',
    timezone: 'UTC',
    owner: 'engineering_team',
  },
};

// 2. Single calculation function used everywhere
async function calculateDeploymentFrequency(startDate: Date, endDate: Date): Promise<number> {
  // Canonical implementation (used by all dashboards)
  const deployments = await github.getDeployments({
    environment: 'production',
    status: 'success',
    created_at: { gte: startDate, lte: endDate },
  });

  const days = (endDate - startDate) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24);
  return deployments.length / days;
}

// 3. All dashboards pull from same API endpoint
app.get('/api/metrics/deployment-frequency', async (req, res) => {
  const result = await calculateDeploymentFrequency(req.query.start, req.query.end);
  res.json({ value: result, definition: METRIC_DEFINITIONS.deployment_frequency });
});

Enforcement:

• Centralized metrics API (all dashboards call same endpoint)
• Versioned metric definitions (track changes over time)
• Regular audits (check for divergent calculations)
• Documentation (publish metric catalog with definitions)
