What are the parameters which are taken into consideration when deciding that a certain site is needed?

Mostly you can find literature about that here: meta.stackexchange.com/a/239949/287976– TensibaiFeb 27, 2019 at 16:31

2If by "non-beta" it means "graduated", SE stated that when a site starts to consistently receive 10 questions/day, we’ll consider it for graduation. However, no new beta sites have graduated since Oct 2017– Andrew T.Feb 28, 2019 at 6:32

Have a look at the proposals within the Area 51 site for the site you want to know the answer to your question.
As a sample, go check it out for DevOps.SE. The beta-tab shows the current status (progress), indicating what is still needed for the site to become mature enough to "graduate" (= change from beta status to no-longer-beta).
Even though there appear to be exceptions, as soon as all 5 indicators have changed to Excellent, additional steps are taken to actually obsolete the beta status of the site, which may still take a few months or so.
PS: with the above in mind, if you want to help DevOps.SE to graduate, just try to post some more (good!) questions, and / or try to answer existing questions.

3/5 are excellent at the moment. The daily amount of questions and number of answers per question is an issue currently.– 030Dec 27, 2019 at 9:06
