Interpretation
- High Change Failure Rate (>15%) indicates poor deployment quality or insufficient testing, increased operational overhead, reduced confidence in releases & higher mean time to recovery (MTTR).You should improve testing, deployment validation, and rollback procedures.
- A Medium Change Failure Rate (5-15%) is acceptable, within reasonable bounds for most organizations and indicates a balanced approach to speed and stability.
- Low Change Failure Rate (<5%) indicates reliable deployment processes, high confidence in releases, minimal operational disruption & faster deployment frequency.
