Absorb the Code Analytics category into Value Stream Management and DevOps Adoption
Overview
Code Analytics is a product category that is at Minimal
maturity level. It is described in the direction page as a deep dive into the Code stage of Value Stream Analytics to find bottlenecks. ~"Category:Value Stream Management" already provides high-level insight into the time that workflow items spend in the code stage relative to other stages of the software development life cycle and allows users to drill in and identify bottlenecks. Value Stream Analytics will link to other key parts of the UI so that users can dive deeper. Additionally, DevOps Reports will show usage metrics for features in the Create stage and how usage correlates to performance.
Secondly, there is no clear maturity plan or roadmap for this product category and it has been sitting stale since its inception.
Proposal
Given the duplication with existing product categories, Value Stream Management and DevOps Reports, and the lack of maturity plan, direction, and roadmap, I don't think it is worth the overhead of maintaining a separate product category for code analytics and recommend that this category be absorbed into Value Stream Management and DevOps Reports.
