This by the same team who brought you the DORA metrics and the SPACE framework. I suspect it is really a vehicle to sell books and consulting, despite the article largely making sense.

Maybe it is atonement of some sort.

Thanks for pointing that out. Although I do think DORA metrics make some sense, it seems like an unnecessary framework considering what the folks in queueing theory have done over the years.

Anyone claiming we need to invent our own metrics needs to read Reinertsen.

I'm sure you have seen it already, but there has been some sound criticism of the DORA metrics: https://isthisit.nz/posts/2022/state-of-the-dora-devops-metr...

Though I disagree with Logan about the change failure rate (see https://two-wrongs.com/you-can-reliably-measure-change-failu...), I still think he is spot on in terms of MTTR.

Strongly seconding Reinertsen for anyone interested in this, though. I think this article of yours is particularly insightful and of high quality: https://lucasfcosta.com/2022/08/31/engineering-metrics.html
