# DORA Metrics
|
|
|
|
## Definition
|
|
DORA (DevOps Research and Assessment) metrics are four key performance indicators established by the DevOps Research and Assessment team to measure and benchmark DevOps performance.
|
|
|
|
## The Four Keys
|
|
|
|
| Metric | Description | Elite Performance |
|
|
|--------|-------------|------------------|
|
|
| **Deployment Frequency** | How often code is deployed to production | On-demand (multiple deploys per day) |
|
|
| **Lead Time for Changes** | Time from code commit to production | Less than one hour |
|
|
| **Change Failure Rate** | Percentage of deployments causing failures | 0-15% |
|
|
| **Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR)** | Time to restore service after a failure | Less than one hour |
|
|
|
|
## Usage in DevOps Maturity Assessment
|
|
DORA metrics are a core component of DevOps maturity evaluation, providing quantifiable measures of an organization's DevOps performance. High-performing organizations typically deploy on-demand, have short lead times, low change failure rates, and rapid recovery times.
|
|
|
|
## Extended Metrics from DevOps Maturity Model
|
|
|
|
Beyond the four core DORA metrics, the DevOps Maturity Model (Bacancy) identifies additional operational metrics:
|
|
|
|
| Metric | Description |
|
|
|--------|-------------|
|
|
| **Time-To-Market** | Period from initial concept to product launch |
|
|
| **Code Deployment Success Rate** | Proportion of successful deployments |
|
|
| **Rollback Rate** | Proportion of deployments that are reverted |
|
|
| **Error Budget** | Permissible rate of errors and failures in production |
|
|
| **Availability** | Time the system remains operational and accessible |
|
|
| **Scalability** | System's ability to manage increased load |
|
|
| **Time-in-stage** | Average duration to complete each development phase |
|
|
| **Code Review Feedback Loop Time** | Time to receive and act on code review feedback |
