Introducing Opsera’s GitHub Copilot Productivity Pulse Metrics

To measure the cost and time savings associated with adopting GitHub Copilot, Opsera has introduced the GitHub Copilot Productivity Pulse metric. This metric allows organizations to project the benefits of implementing GitHub Copilot across their teams by providing insights into potential cost savings, time efficiency, and overall business value.

Users can input specific data to calculate the Productivity Pulse for their organization. The results offer valuable information on the potential ROI of using GitHub Copilot and can lead to increased productivity, efficiency, and cost savings, ultimately leading to enhanced business value. The Pulse metric can be enabled and disabled based on an organizational need through policy settings.

Gain Insights into Development Activity and Collaboration within the Copilot Impact Metric

New charts have been introduced to provide developers with more insights into their coding activities. The Copilot Impact Chart now displays the insights for commits and pull requests, along with the total number of times developers accepted suggestions from GitHub CoPilot.

• Copilot Generated Code - Code generated by both the Copilot IDE and Copilot Chat.
• Copilot Acceptances - Represents the total number of times developers accepted suggestions from both the Copilot IDE and Copilot Chat.
• Commits - Indicates the total number of changes made to a repository by developers.
• Pull Requests Accepted - Signifies the total number of pull requests that were merged into the main branch after review.

View Copilot License Activity in Opsera’s Copilot Reports

The Copilot License Activity metric enables you to review the GitHub Copilot usage in your organization to make informed decisions about seat assignment. This information encompasses all Copilot seat assignments for the organization that are currently being billed, including both active seats and those pending cancellation at the start of the next billing cycle.

Insights from the license activity can help in efficient allocation of GitHub Copilot seats within the organization based on actual usage patterns. The metric data is aggregated once a day by Opsera, ensuring that organizations have up-to-date information on their license activity. For more info, read here.

SDLC Features and Enhancements

Run AWS CLI Commands in Opsera Pipelines

Opsera Pipelines offer users the ability to execute AWS CLI commands within their workflows, enabling them to interact with and manage AWS resources directly through the command line interface. Users can define the specific AWS CLI commands to be executed within the Opsera pipeline, either as inline scripts, script files, or packaged scripts. This feature streamlines the process of managing AWS services and enhances automation capabilities within pipeline configurations. For more info, read here.

Build and Push Docker Images to Azure DevOps Repositories

In Opsera Pipelines, a workflow can be established for building and pushing Docker images to Azure DevOps repositories. This process involves the creation of a pipeline that builds and publishes Docker images to Azure Container Registry. During the setup of the pipeline, it is necessary to select the Azure DevOps repository and branch where the Docker images will be built and pushed.

Salesforce Features and Enhancements
