Middleware

Middleware is an open source web analytics tool for engineering leaders who need to assess how effectively their teams work. Licensed under Apache-2.0, it provides a structured way to measure and analyze team effectiveness using the DORA metrics. By combining measurement with analysis, Middleware helps engineering leadership develop a clearer understanding of team performance and how effectively engineering teams operate. Middleware can be used as an alternative to Google Analytics, but it is not a direct replacement for every analytics need. Its scope is specifically focused on engineering team effectiveness and evaluation through DORA metrics. This focused approach is useful for leaders who want to understand engineering performance, but it is also a limitation compared with a broader analytics product: Middleware’s stated purpose does not extend beyond assessing engineering teams through this metrics framework.
