What are Key Performance Indicators and how do they relate in web development?

Are KPIs used for Non-Functional Requirements? And are KPIs like latency, throughput, and response times for the Performance NFR?

Are KPIs used for Accounts/Marketing and Sales/Manufacturing/etc...

So do KPIs have nothing to do with web development?

Yes, metrics like latency, throughput, error rates, and response times are absolutely web dev KPIs.

Your NFR might state: The API must have a response time of under 200ms under normal load.

Your KPI is the actual live metric you track in your APM to prove to management or clients that the app is performing as promised.
