Deployment frequency

Target operating model — recommended contracts, not installed collection. All owner and cadence entries below are proposals to confirm before the pilot, not assigned responsibilities or approved schedules.

Unimplemented metric — no live telemetry. This is a prospective contract, not an implemented calculation or collector.

Distinct successful logical production deployments per complete service-day of observation.

Eligible populationDeclared production services and complete UTC observation days; report each service before pooled views.
ExclusionsTest/staging, failed attempts without production effect, duplicate callbacks and retries of the same rollout.
Events and sourcedeployment.completed; authoritative deployment service
Owner / cadencePlatform & IT / Weekly per service
Missing evidenceMissing feed periods not zero; report coverage and no unqualified overall rate when period incomplete.
Gaming and limitsSplit deployments without value; pair with success, rework and failure measures. Descriptive signal, not causal AI productivity attribution. Source completeness, task mix and sampling limit inference; report uncertainty. More deployments alone do not establish better performance; affected unsuccessful changes remain in change-fail population.

Read the shared collection and safeguards before collecting data; see the synthetic example and limits.
