Key Takeaways from Successful Migrations
While each migration is unique, several common patterns and lessons have emerged from successful transitions:
Incremental Approach
Most successful migrations took an incremental, component-by-component approach rather than attempting a complete rewrite at once.
Extensive Testing
Comprehensive testing with a focus on concurrency, timing, and edge cases proved essential for maintaining stability during migration.
Hybrid Transition Period
Many projects went through a hybrid period where both Eventlet and its replacement coexisted, with careful isolation between components.
Performance Validation
Successful migrations included comprehensive benchmarking before and after to ensure performance gains or at least performance parity.
