Easily share

best practices with Faros. DevOps tasks often involve multiple tabs/scripts to get data. Instead write a simple

query to get data, transform it, save it & share the url for anyone to try on their own data -- bitly for DevOps!
The explosion of software created a lot of complexity for people to deal with and companies like
@twilio
and
@segment
created a huge amount of value helping their customers solve that. Congrats on their new partnership and paving the way for companies like ours.
Today

announced we’re acquiring
@Segment

🍾 After months of hard work, we are finally ready to unveil - the Faros Clubroom app. A never seen before social audio feature for our members to discuss different topics.
See you in Clubroom by Faros!
It's notoriously hard to measure eng productivity, IMO because business value depends on so many factors, but in the spirit of "the score takes care of itself", here are some good targets imo:
>1 deploy/day/eng
<10min CI time
<20min deploy
<2h median pull request cycle time
Finding the right balance between process/predictability and agility can be challenging, but automation can help by allowing teams to accurately measure velocity metrics such as lead time and cycle time without the burden of excessive process.
#EngOps
We've put a lot of thought into making it super easy for engineering teams to connect up their individual data sources to our EngOps Platform.
The result?
