The DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) Metrics, also known as Accelerate metrics, are four key performance indicators that help measure a team's software development efficiency. These metrics include Deployment Frequency, Change Lead Time, Change Failure Rate, and Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR). The main goal of these metrics is not just about improving the numbers but also enhancing the overall developer experience and productivity. By focusing on these metrics, teams can identify bottlenecks in their development process, improve efficiency, and deliver high-quality software faster. Tools like Sleuth can assist teams in tracking and improving upon DORA metrics.
