SESSION

Gaining Actionable Cross-Project Build Insights

Set up a toolchain that allows you to efficiently gain actionable insights where you will get the most build reliability and acceleration improvements in return for your investment.

This presentation will explain the toolchain of

  • CI plugins to inject the DV configuration and capture all CI builds
  • Using DRV to determine which projects require the most attention
  • Using experiments, BVS, and other measures to perform the optimization and stabilization actions

The primary focus will be on #2, DRV.
