SPACE Framework: Software delivery performance and effectiveness

SPACE Framework: Performance

The Performance dimension uses DORA (DevOps Research and Assessment) metrics to measure software delivery outcomes and system reliability—proven indicators of high-performing teams.

The Performance tab displays DORA metrics—the industry-standard benchmarks developed by Google's DevOps Research team to measure software delivery and operational performance.
