Answer
‘Time to Restore Service’
Time to recovery or time to restore service measures how long it takes a DevOps team to restore service following an incident, such as an unplanned outage or service impairment.
The recovery time metric is critical for ensuring quick recovery from any incidents. In comparison, elite performers can recover services in an hour or less, while low performers take weeks to months. To achieve quick MTTR metrics, elite teams deploy in small batches to reduce risk and have good monitoring tools to prevent failure.
