Reporting on development team performance has always been somewhat fraught. Whether it has been the number of tests, lines of code added, number of commits. If not done right it drive poor behavior and people game the system just to do their jobs. The DORA framework has sought to help address this by looking at throughput and stability metric, but how can we actually measure this?

In this workshop we will look at how we can use Microsoft Fabric to build a platform which will allow us to gain deeper insight on how our GitHub organization is performing. We will look at defining the key metrics needed, design a data model that will meet those needs, then explore how to ingest and transform the data before presenting it in a way that makes it easy to digest.

At the end of this training day we will have shown you how to get away from arbitrary reporting on meaningless metrics, but rather how you can build a system to help teams see where they are productive, where they are not and help them streamline their processes.
