Telemetry

Overview

Here on the CF Dev team, we use telemetry to help us understand how our tool is being used. We value our users privacy, therefore all telemetry is completely anonymous. There is no way for anyone with the telemetry to identify who is using the CF Dev tool. In an effort to make our data as transparent as possible, we will be publishing aggregated anonymous usage data to this page periodically to help our user community understand how the tool is being used.

In addition to making this data completely anonymous, we require users to opt-in to allowing us to collect telemetry from their tool. Upon running $ cf dev start for the first time, we will prompt the user to opt-in to capturing analytics. Any time after that you can turn on/off telemetry by running $ cf dev telemetry --on/off

Telemetry Data

The intent of collecting anonymous usage telemetry is to better understand what features are most frequently used which will in turn help us improve those features (or provide new features) moving forward.

Every usage event that we capture will include these eight data points. When these events occur we will store this data locally until we push it to our servers for storage and analysis.

• Event
• Data
• Timestamp
• Anonymous ID
• Operating System
• Build
