Engineering analytics
beyond DORA

AeroSPACE gives engineering leaders the full picture — satisfaction, communication, efficiency — not just the four metrics your dashboards already track.

THE FRAMEWORK

Five dimensions. One complete picture.

SPACE was developed by researchers at Microsoft, GitHub, and the University of Victoria — the first framework to capture the full complexity of developer productivity.

S

Satisfaction

Developer well-being, pulse sentiment, burnout risk signals — without survey fatigue.

›Sentiment trends
›Burnout risk score
›Team morale index
P

Performance

Delivery speed and reliability. DORA metrics included — and contextualized with team health.

›Deployment frequency
›Lead time
›Change failure rate
A

Activity

Contribution patterns, PR rhythms, and code volume — interpreted, not just counted.

›PR throughput
›Code review cycles
›Contribution breadth
C

Communication

Async collaboration health, documentation coverage, and cross-team review quality.

›Review quality score
›Async health index
›Doc coverage
E

Efficiency

Flow state duration, context switching, PR cycle time, and meeting load per engineer.

›Flow time ratio
›PR cycle time
›Interruption cost

THE PROBLEM

DORA tells you what. SPACE tells you why.

LinearB, Jellyfish, Swarmia, DX — they're all building on top of the same four DORA metrics. The signals that actually predict team health are invisible to them.
