Developers spend 30–40% of their time on “glue work” — waiting for reviews, searching for documentation, dealing with infrastructure. Developer Experience changes that.
DORA Metrics¶
- Deployment Frequency — how often we deploy (target: daily)
- Lead Time for Changes — from commit to production (target: under a day)
- Change Failure Rate — % of deploys causing an incident (target: under 15%)
- MTTR — time to recover after an incident (target: under an hour)
Golden Paths in Practice¶
Backstage templates for new services: repo + CI/CD + K8s manifests + monitoring + docs in 10 minutes. Developers focus on business logic, not infrastructure. Self-service instead of tickets to the ops team.
Cognitive Load¶
We reduce the number of tools, standardize stacks, and document decisions. “Extraneous cognitive load” (unnecessary complexity) must go down.
DevEx = Competitive Advantage¶
Happy and productive developers deliver faster and with higher quality.
