How to calculate Production Incidents
Many different KPIs fall under the production incident umbrella, so how you calculate them is entirely customizable based on your needs. A few popular metrics used to track production incidents are: Incidents over time - This is a metric that counts up the number of incidents you’ve encountered over a specified time period. You can determine what’s acceptable or unacceptable for your products and you can see patterns in increases and decreases of incidents over time. Uptime and downtime - You can calculate the average number of your uptime or downtime, giving you a percentage that indicates your reliability levels and whether or not they’re in an acceptable range. Production incidents won’t fix your problems for you, but it’s important to show trends in incidents to dev teams in order to address them before they get worse.
