Epic: Implement Metrics for Unified Build

Goal

Ensure that Unified Build official builds, PR builds, and CI builds maintain high quality by implementing and verifying key metrics.

Business Justification

Implementing these metrics is critical for maintaining the efficiency and reliability of our build processes. By measuring and tracking build times, pass rates, size on disk, artifact sizes, overhead, and signing status, we can:

• Improve Build Efficiency: Identify bottlenecks in the build process and optimize build times, reducing overall development time.
• Enhance Build Quality: Monitor build pass rates to ensure high success rates, leading to more stable and reliable builds.
• Ensure Reliability: Track build sizes, artifact sizes, and signing status to ensure that builds are consistent and do not encounter issues related to excessive size, unexpected changes, or unsigned artifacts.
• Optimize Resource Allocation: Analyze build overhead to ensure optimal use of resources and minimize idle times.
• Provide Transparency: Create a dashboard for real-time tracking and reporting of these metrics, providing visibility to stakeholders and facilitating data-driven decision-making.
• Reduce Regressions: By closely monitoring these metrics, we can quickly identify and address regressions, ensuring continued high quality and reliability of our builds.

By implementing these metrics, we aim to ensure that our build processes are efficient, reliable, and produce high-quality outputs, ultimately contributing to the success of our projects and satisfaction of our clients.
