In this episode, the discussion by the AI hosts is based on my article, "Navigating the Digital Product Workflow Metrics Landscape: From DORA to Comprehensive Value Stream Management Platform Solutions." It acts as a guide for senior leaders in choosing the best software delivery metrics platform for their needs. It evaluates four types of platforms: DORA metrics, which focus on deployment; DX Core 4, which emphasizes speed, effectiveness, quality, and business impact; Software Engineering Intelligence (SEI) platforms, which offer broader insights into the delivery pipeline; and Value Stream Management (VSM) platforms, which provide a comprehensive view of the entire product lifecycle. The discussion emphasizes the importance of identifying bottlenecks before making a choice and highlights the need to consider factors such as budget, leadership readiness, and team sentiment. Additionally, the article provides several examples for each platform type.
