awconstable / teamdashboard

A DevOps team performance collection and visualisation PoC aligned to The Four Keys and the DORA metrics.

Team Dashboard

A proof of concept DevOps Performance dashboard

Awareness of team performance is important to enable data-driven continuous improvement. Accelerate, DORA and the State of DevOps report has had a massive impact on DevOps transformations around the world providing guidance on what to measure to retain focus on the key DevOps outcomes - continuously improving Value Throughput and Stability.

Google Cloud's The Four Keys, is a fantastic tool for teams using GCP - but what if you're on-premise, or have many teams or use another cloud provider?

The Team Dashboard is here to help by providing a simple set of containerised services to enable your teams to easily measure and visualise Lead Time for Change, Deployment Frequency, Change Failure Rate and Mean Time to Recover.
