Getting started with the new GitLab Value Streams Dashboard

Overview

GitLab Value Stream Management and the Value Streams Dashboard enable decision-makers to identify trends, patterns, and opportunities for digital transformation improvements. The centralized UI in Value Streams Dashboard acts as a single source of truth (SSOT), where all stakeholders can access and view the same set of metrics relevant to the organization.

Getting Started

To get started with GitLab Value Streams Dashboard, simply navigate to your GitLab instance, go to the Value Stream Analytics tab, and click on the Value Streams Dashboard button.

Key Features

The first iteration of the GitLab Value Streams Dashboard includes a DevSecOps metrics comparison panel, which displays metrics for a group or project in a variety of timeframes. Users can drill down to a detailed report to investigate the underlying data and identify actionable insights.

Roadmap

Future capabilities for Value Streams Dashboard include an executive-level summary of key metrics related to software performance and flow of value across the organization, as well as a "DORA Performers score" panel with DORA metrics health from all the organization's groups and projects.
