Business Goal

Fast track GitLab to becoming a data-driven organisation by meeting the data needs of the Product team. Specifically:

  • Enable Product to measure stage-specific usage activity, including read activity (frontend; a user in GitLab views a page) and write activity (backend; an object is created)
  • Track stage-specific health metrics like SMAU.

Exit Criteria

  • Create a Periscope dashboard for a single stage that measures SMAU and feature use on GitLab.com.
  • Ensure we can replicate this for other stages with great documentation.
