Poll time! How many of you are software engineers? How many of you are optimists? How many of you are self-confident in their work? @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Dunning-Kruger Effect a.k.a. ”optimism” “ People suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their cognitive ability as greater than it is. Wikipedia @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Second-system effect a.k.a. “self-confidence” “ The tendency of small, elegant, and successful systems, to be succeeded by overengineered, bloated systems, due to inflated expectations and overconfidence. The Mythical Man-Month @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
The consequences @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
disillusion Software I like @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore Software I know really well http://jfrog.com/shownotes
overconfidence “ Every software is 80% ready 80% of the time Every developer, ever @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes

Engineering metrics in pre-devops era Ops Dev • Velocity • Architecture • Compliance @jbaruch @LeonStigter • SLA • Cost env setup • Average customer cost • Tools stability #DevOpsDaysBmore • • • • • QA Incidents Defects MTTR Code coverage Test suite stability http://jfrog.com/shownotes
DEVOPS! ? @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Velocity to agile is like ? To devops… ? @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Velocity to agile is like profit To devops… Profit @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Very much alike! Metric Profit Velocity @jbaruch Easily understandable Unity actionable ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✗ ✗ @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes

Poll time! Who knows what velocity is? Who knows what burndown chart is? Who has a burndown chart? Who looks at the burndown chart? Who trusts the burndown chart? Who knows what to do if it doesn’t look right?
What’s the problem? Velocity @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
True for both! Metric Profit Velocity @jbaruch Easily understandable Unity actionable ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✗ ✗ @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Too coarse! Profit @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes

Cooking with metrics @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Metrics categorization @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Why? @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
ROI – is this activity is the right thing to do?
Continuous improvement
trust
sampling @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Complete sample
@jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Representative sample
How effective are we? Samples are good enough for that As long as they are representative Need to be collected over time @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes

Dos and Don’ts
Measuring the right thing
LoC LOL, anyone? @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Avoid data overload
Use reliable data
Metrics generate incentives, be aware! @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes
Tweak as you go
Elevate! Integrated Dashboards Product Specific Dashboards Raw Data @jbaruch @LeonStigter #DevOpsDaysBmore http://jfrog.com/shownotes

“Without data, you’re just another person with opinions”.
In this talk, we’ll talk about data-driven DevOps and how the cross-cutting metrics from dev, QA, and ops can be integrated to provide you and the teams you support with an insight into the status of your engineering organization. As the DevOps Evangelists of your organization, you can help your teams to adopt data-driven decision making whereas it becomes more important due to cross-pillar influence and collaborated need for success. The practical aspect will cover dos and don’ts and examples of metrics that you can implement in to help your teams today.
