  target: 1000000
  current: 250000
  deadline: "2026-Q4"
  owner: "CPO"
  metrics: ["MAU", "retention_rate"]

# KPI
metadata:
  type: "retention"
  target: 0.80
  current: 0.83
  measurement: "90_day_active"
  frequency: "weekly"

# Microservice
metadata:
  language: "Go"

```

## Comprehensive Linking

Created traceability links using all link types:

### Link Types Used:
- **IMPLEMENTS** - Service implements business rule/ADR
- **TESTS** - Test plan tests service
- **DEPENDS_ON** - Service depends on infrastructure
- **VALIDATES** - KPI validates business objective

- **RELATES_TO** - Vulnerability relates to service

### Example Links:
1. Pricing Service → IMPLEMENTS → Surge pricing business rule
2. Matching Service → IMPLEMENTS → Event-driven architecture ADR
3. Ride booking test plan → TESTS → Matching Service
4. Matching Service → EXPOSES → POST /v1/rides API
5. Matching Service → DEPENDS_ON → PostgreSQL database
6. GDPR regulation → PARENT_OF → GDPR compliance requirements
7. Trip retention rule → IMPLEMENTS → GDPR compliance
8. Rider API documentation → DOCUMENTS → Matching Service
