What is the Strangler Fig pattern used in this skill?

The Strangler Fig pattern is a migration strategy where the new system (Exa) gradually replaces the old system by wrapping it in an adapter, eventually 'strangling' the old implementation until it can be safely removed.

Does this skill handle rollback if a migration fails?

Yes, it includes specific rollback procedures and feature flag configurations to immediately revert traffic to the legacy system in case of performance drops or errors.

Can I use this for major Exa version upgrades?

Absolutely. This skill is designed specifically for major version jumps that require schema changes or structural integration updates beyond simple dependency bumps.

How does the skill validate that the migration was successful?

It provides a validation report script that checks data counts, API functionality, performance baselines, and error rates to ensure the new Exa implementation meets parity requirements.

Gestión de Bases de Datos

Executes complex Exa re-architecture and migration strategies using the Strangler Fig pattern to ensure zero-downtime transitions.

Acerca de

The Exa Migration Deep Dive skill provides a comprehensive framework for migrating to or from Exa, performing major version upgrades, or re-platforming existing integrations. It automates technical assessments, guides the creation of abstraction layers (adapters), and manages multi-phase data migrations. By implementing the Strangler Fig pattern, this skill enables developers to move traffic gradually, minimize risk through feature-flag-controlled rollouts, and maintain robust rollback procedures during significant architectural changes.
