Love the data? Be the data! A peek inside DORA's research program
summary
DORA runs an annual survey of thousands of practitioners since 2014 and now housed in Google Cloud that feeds a structural equation model to test concrete claims: continuous delivery predicts software delivery performance, and generative culture predicts delivery success. The program reports specific, repeatable metrics (two for stability and two for throughput), publishes yearly results, and invites 15‑minute participation at dora.dev/survey. Methods use questionnaires, statistical modeling and reproducible notebooks; findings aim to link engineering practices to outcomes like profitability and burnout.
