DevOps Adoption shows you how groups in your organization adopt and use the most essential features of GitLab.
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
You can use Group DevOps Adoption to:
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- Identify specific subgroups that are lagging in their adoption of GitLab features, so you can guide them on
their DevOps journey.
- Find subgroups that have adopted certain features, and provide guidance to other subgroups on
how to use those features.
- Verify if you are getting the return on investment that you expected from GitLab.

DevOps Adoption shows feature adoption data for groups and subgroups for the previous calendar month.
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
A feature shows as **adopted** when a group has used the feature in a project during the time period.
This includes projects in any subgroups of the group. For example, if an issue was created in a project in a group, the group has adopted issues in that time.

### Exceptions to feature adoption data
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
When GitLab measures DevOps Adoption, some common DevOps information is not included:
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- Dormant projects. It doesn't matter how many projects in the group use a feature. Even if you have many dormant projects, it doesn't lower the adoption.
- New GitLab features. Adoption is the total number of features adopted, not the percent of features.

2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
## When DevOps Adoption data is gathered
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
A weekly task processes data for DevOps Adoption. This task is disabled until you access
DevOps Adoption for a group for the first time.
2021-11-18 22:05:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
The data processing task updates the data on the first day of each month. If the monthly update
fails, the task tries daily until it succeeds.
2021-11-18 22:05:49 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
DevOps Adoption data may take up to a minute to appear while GitLab processes the group's data.
