The Platform Insights team vision will deliver a unified data event platform that allows users to query, visualize, and analyze their data in order to optimize their workflows within Git Lab. We aim to create a consistent dashboard experience that makes it easy for users to ask the questions pertinent to their use cases and build rich team/use case specific views.

The unified event platform will consume data from all stages so that users can monitor the health of their team, their processes, and their services all in a single pane of glass.
