Recover Fast, Save Revenue With DORA Metrics
If a new release negatively impacts system performance, feature flag management provides a safety net. Companies can quickly disable the feature flag to a stable state without affecting other parts of the system. The ability to recover from failures like this helps minimize downtime and associated costs. Companies like Split reduce MTTR (mean time to restore) to less than a minute. Schedule a demo today!

What are DORA Metrics?
DORA stands for DevOps Research and Assessment Team. The group was established at Google. After researching the opportunities of the DevOps practice, they put together a bulletproof way to track software development teams’ performance. Identified after surveying over 31,000 people in the software industry, they designed DORA Metrics.
DORA Metrics & How Feature Flags Help You Measure Up
No matter what industry you work in, the evolving demands of an “agile” promise is a challenge to live up to. For developers, that requires constant pivots, faster response times, and a graceful recovery from failure. Still, against the enormous pressure to continually improve, the best software teams deliver the goods safely and on time. Touché!
Rethinking DORA: Mean Time to Restore
1. Lead Time for Changes
This is the length of time between when a code change is committed to the trunk and when it is deployed to production.
2. Change Failure Rate
The change failure rate is the percentage of code changes that require hotfixes, rollbacks, or other remediation after production.
3. Deployment Frequency
This measures the frequency of new code being deployed into production.
4. Mean Time to Restore
This is how long it takes to restore a service from a partial interruption or total failure. Whether the interruption is the result of a recent deployment or an isolated system failure, MTTR is important to track.
