How would you collect metrics and KPIs for your Internal Developer Platform?
This tests product-thinking: treating developers as customers, not captive users. Strong answers cover adoption (golden-path usage), developer experience (deploy speed, NPS), and business value. Red flag: tracking CPU or uptime without linking to adoption.
This tests product-thinking for IDPs: treating internal developers as customers with choices, not captive users, and measuring outcomes over infrastructure outputs. A strong answer covers four metric categories: adoption (golden-path usage versus workarounds), developer experience (time-to-deploy, NPS), reliability (MTTR, error rates), and business value (cost per deploy, hours saved). Red flag: a dashboard of CPU, memory, or uptime metrics with no connection to developer behavior, platform adoption, or organizational impact.
