The four DORA metrics

Research-validated by Google DORA since 2014. Benchmarks from the 2023 State of DevOps Report.

DF
Deployment Frequency
Deployments per day / week / month (per team)

How often your team successfully deploys to production. The highest-signal indicator of engineering throughput.

Elite
Multiple times per day
High
Once per day
Medium
Once per week
Low
Once per month or less
Data source: GitHub Deployments, Vercel, Railway, Netlify, Render, Fly.io, AWS CodeDeploy
LT
Lead Time for Changes
Time from first commit to production deployment

How long it takes for code to go from committed to running in production. Measures end-to-end delivery speed.

Elite
Less than 1 hour
High
Less than 1 day
Medium
1 week to 1 month
Low
More than 1 month
Data source: GitHub commits, PR merge timestamps, deployment events
CFR
Change Failure Rate
(Deployments that cause incidents / total deployments) × 100

The percentage of deployments that result in a degraded service or require remediation. Koalr correlates deployments to incidents automatically.

Elite
0–5%
High
5–10%
Medium
10–15%
Low
More than 15%
Data source: Deployment events correlated with PagerDuty / Incident.io incidents (4-hour window)
MTTR
Mean Time to Restore
Average time from incident triggered to incident resolved

How quickly your team recovers when things go wrong. Measures the effectiveness of your incident response process.

Elite
Less than 1 hour
High
Less than 1 day
Medium
1 day to 1 week
Low
More than 1 week
Data source: PagerDuty, Opsgenie, Incident.io incident timelines

Beyond DORA

DORA tells you what happened. Koalr tells you what will happen.

DORA metrics are table stakes — every platform has them. Koalr adds a predictive layer that no competitor offers.

Deploy Risk Score

DORA tells you your CFR was 12% last month. Koalr tells you which specific PR is likely to become an incident before you merge it.

Coverage-Risk Correlation

DORA doesn't tell you why your CFR went up. Koalr correlates low coverage repos with higher incident rates, down to the file level.

Learn more →
CODEOWNERS Enforcement

DORA doesn't help you prevent risky merges. Koalr blocks PRs that violate CODEOWNERS rules via GitHub Check Runs.
