Faros Community Edition (CE) is an open-source engineering operations platform that connects the dots between all your operational data sources for a single-pane view across the software development life cycle. Metabase powers Faros CE.
What can you do with Faros CE thanks to Metabase?
Faros CE provides ELT, APIs, BI, and automation for engineering operations data. With Faros CE, you can answer questions about bottlenecks in your CI/CD pipelines, issues in your onboarding processes, progress towards your goals, with data that is fresh, connected, queryable, and most importantly, all in one place. Let’s dive in to show how Metabase makes that simple.
Let’s take lead time for example. Lead time is a software delivery metric popularized by the DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) organization, that measures the time it takes for changes to go from idea to production. That number in itself is not sufficient, however. It is important to put it in context. And Metabase makes it simple to provide that context! In the Faros CE DORA Metabase dashboard, you can see
- How your lead time compares to known industry benchmarks thanks to the gauge visualization with ranges
- The evolution of lead time for each of your applications over time with a line chart
- The breakdown of lead time by stage, so you can start to see where the bottlenecks are in your software delivery process thanks to stacked vertical bar charts.
Our users love to:
- Zoom into the underlying data by simply clicking on the charts.
- Create their own metrics and charts in Metabase from scratch or from our canned charts, without the need for SQL and with previews at every stage
- Use X-Rays for fast insights in their datasets
This interactivity in Metabase creates a virtuous cycle of increased trust into the metrics and increased usage and exploration. And that cycle is easily bootstrapped.
