Having clear visibility into a continuous integration (CI) pipeline is more important than before in order to sustain health and performance in the development life cycle. This leads to boosting all your success metrics such as mean time to respond (MTTR), change failure rate, development frequency and more.

That’s why proactively monitoring the cost peaks and downs of CI workflows is as important as monitoring the failures, duration and so on. A monitoring approach that shows the breakdown of the workflow costs will help speed things up and optimize costs for CI workflows on GitHub Actions.

In the tweets below, we clearly see why having visibility across the duration of GitHub Actions workflows is needed.
