Objectives

It is critical to establish performance and reliability objectives and key results for your application. Objectives are simply what you want to accomplish. Indicators are the key results.

We suggest creating two types of objectives for each indicator:

• Benchmark Objectives - Create an objective for each indicator that sets the baseline.
• Aspirational Objectives - Create an objective for each indicator that is challenging but achievable.

The benchmark objectives are the baseline for your application. The purpose of these objectives are to ensure that your application's performance and reliability does not degrade over time.

The aspirational objectives are the goals for your application. The purpose of these objectives is to ensure that your application is always improving.

To create an objective, navigate to the application objectives page and click the Create Objective button.
