Application Maturity Analysis

The Application Maturity Analysis dashboard provides a snapshot view of your application maturity in terms of how mature is the application deployment using Deploy. This dashboard provides an overview of the current month’s application growth from the deployment point of view. You can compare the annual growth percentage of applications and the associated deployments and environments. The dashboard data is fetched based on parameters such as application added to a deployment tool, applications deployment activity, and application maturity when the application is deployed in multiple environments.

The Application Maturity Analysis dashboard helps a Deploy Manager answer the following business questions:

• Can I examine the application maturity in terms of deployment over the last 13 months or 13 weeks of data?
• Can I Identify the issues or delays related to the application deployment process and provide support to resolve them?
• What is the success rate of application deployment processes?
• What is the actual and average growth in application deployment?

This dashboard is built using the deployment and deployment_application datasets.

The Application Maturity Analysis dashboard consists of the following sections:

• KPIs: By default, the KPIs listed in this dashboard show the values for the current month. The following KPIs drive the sections in the monthly and weekly panels of the dashboard:

• Applications Used: The total number of applications deployed in the current month.

• Applications More Than 1 Deployment: The number of applications associated with multiple deployments in any environment.

• Applications More Than 2 Environments: The number of applications deployed in more than two different environment types.

• Applications Where Deployment Failure Rate More Than Ideal: The count of applications where the deployment failure rate is greater than the average failure rate.

• Monthly: The information on this Monthly tab covers 13 months of data. Using this tab, you can drill down into the Monthly values and the associated deployment details. Following is an example of the monthly tab.

• Weekly: The Weekly tab provides the data for the last 13 weeks. Using this tab, you can drill down into the Weekly values and the associated deployment details. Following is an example of the weekly tab.
