The DORA team has been conducting an annual survey and report on the state of DevOps for five years, gathering insights from over 23,000 professionals to track industry trends and share best practices. The 2019 report aims to build on this research by including contributions from participants in a new survey. A key finding from previous reports is that elite DevOps performers have a significant advantage in terms of lead times, change failure rates, and time to recover from incidents. To contribute to the 2019 report, professionals are encouraged to take a 25-minute survey, which will help shape the industry's understanding of DevOps best practices. The DORA team, including Google and New Relic, sponsors the research to advance the field of DevOps and software team performance.
