Migrating Distributed Systems Infrastructure: Methodology and Insights

Submitted Oct 22, 2024

Any long running infrastructure in production, reaches its constraints over time. It requires a timely migration to avoid getting into the vicious cycle of tech debt, where upgrading a system evokes fear and reinforces the belief that change is futile.

Transitioning the core infrastructure of such a service necessitates a careful, low-risk approach that ensures continuous service health and no interruptions. It can be an intimidating process.
.
Serverless infrastructures are big in reducing ops and lowering costs. But it comes with a lack of flexibility to debug. In this talk, we focus on how to structure the migration of services that is migrating from its own legacy to depend on a serverless infrastructure and a methodology (charting the course, blazing a path, designing a compass and completing the expedition).

Key Highlights

Chart the Course: Control A/B Experiments
How do you roll the dice to prep for the migration

Blaze a path: Planning the rollout
How to plan the path ahead?

Design a Compass: What can one measure to ensure the migration is proceeding well?
What are some interesting metrics, one can monitor and look out for? Are there simple measurements at certain granular levels that can help build a solid dashboard, that can serve as a compass?

Complete the journey: When to call the migration complete?
What can one measure to call the service migration complete?

{Mention 1-2 takeaways from your session}
