At Honeycomb, we are big fans of the DORA metrics as a tool to help quantify and understand both developer & operations performance, but for years, we merely talked about them as theoretical benchmarks. What does it mean to actually track and optimize them in practice, and how did it change how we worked? Emily will share lessons learned from Honeycomb's recent experiment in automating DORA metrics collection and reporting, as well as some actionable tips for teams interested in using DORA metrics as actionable KPIs.
