Examples of Deployment Team metrics and KPIs

Metrics for AI Model Performance Evaluation

  • 1. Number of Parameters

    Differentiates model size options such as 1 billion (B), 3B, 7B, 14B parameters

    What good looks like for this metric: 3B parameters is standard

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Evaluate the scalability and resource constraints of the model
    • Optimise parameter tuning
    • Conduct comparative analysis for various model sizes
    • Assess trade-offs between size and performance
    • Leverage model size for specific tasks
  • 2. Dataset Composition

    Percentage representation of data sources: web data, books, code, dialogue corpora, Indian regional languages, and multilingual content

    What good looks like for this metric: Typical dataset: 60% web data, 15% books, 5% code, 10% dialogue, 5% Indian languages, 5% multilingual

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Increase regional and language-specific content
    • Ensure balanced dataset for diverse evaluation
    • Perform periodic updates to dataset
    • Utilise high-quality, curated sources
    • Diversify datasets with varying domains
  • 3. Perplexity on Validation Datasets

    Measures the predictability of the model on validation datasets

    What good looks like for this metric: Perplexity range: 10-20

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Enhance tokenization methods
    • Refine sequence-to-sequence layers
    • Adopt better pre-training techniques
    • Implement data augmentation
    • Leverage transfer learning from similar tasks
  • 4. Inference Speed

    Tokens processed per second on CPU, GPU, and mobile devices

    What good looks like for this metric: GPU: 10k tokens/sec, CPU: 1k tokens/sec, Mobile: 500 tokens/sec

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Optimise algorithm efficiency
    • Reduce model complexity
    • Implement hardware-specific enhancements
    • Utilise parallel processing
    • Explore alternative deployment strategies
  • 5. Edge-device Compatibility

    Evaluates the model's ability to function on edge devices with latency and response quality

    What good looks like for this metric: Latency: <200 ms for response generation

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Optimise for low-resource environments
    • Develop compact model architectures
    • Incorporate adaptive and scalable quality features
    • Implement quantisation and compression techniques
    • Perform real-world deployment tests

Metrics for Backend Developer Performance

  • 1. Code Quality

    Measures the frequency and severity of bugs detected in the codebase.

    What good looks like for this metric: Less than 10 bugs per 1000 lines of code

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Implement regular code reviews
    • Use static code analysis tools
    • Provide training on best coding practices
    • Encourage test-driven development
    • Adopt a peer programming strategy
  • 2. Deployment Frequency

    Tracks how often code changes are successfully deployed to production.

    What good looks like for this metric: Deploy at least once a day

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Automate the deployment pipeline
    • Reduce bottlenecks in the process
    • Regularly publish small, manageable changes
    • Incentivise swift yet comprehensive testing
    • Improve team communication and collaboration
  • 3. Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR)

    Measures the average time taken to recover from a service failure.

    What good looks like for this metric: Less than 1 hour

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Develop a robust incident response plan
    • Streamline rollback and recovery processes
    • Use monitoring tools to detect issues early
    • Conduct post-mortems and learn from failures
    • Enhance system redundancy and fault tolerance
  • 4. Test Coverage

    Represents the percentage of code which is tested by automated tests.

    What good looks like for this metric: 70% to 90%

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Implement continuous integration with testing
    • Educate developers on writing effective tests
    • Regularly update and refactor out-of-date tests
    • Encourage a culture of writing tests
    • Utilise behaviour-driven development techniques
  • 5. API Response Time

    Measures the time taken for an API to respond to a request.

    What good looks like for this metric: Less than 200ms

    Ideas to improve this metric
    • Optimize database queries
    • Utilise caching effectively
    • Reduce payload size
    • Use load balancing techniques
    • Profile and identify performance bottlenecks

Tracking your Deployment Team metrics

Having a plan is one thing, sticking to it is another.

Don't fall into the set-and-forget trap. It is important to adopt a weekly check-in process to keep your strategy agile – otherwise this is nothing more than a reporting exercise.

A tool like Tability can also help you by combining AI and goal-setting to keep you on track.
