Evaluation Process

Step 1: Define Requirements

## Requirements
- Scale: [Expected users/requests]
- Performance: [Latency requirements]
- Budget: [Monthly/yearly budget]
- Team: [Current skills and size]
- Timeline: [Implementation deadline]

Step 2: Identify Options

Research 3-5 viable options:

  • Current market leaders
  • Rising alternatives
  • Team-familiar options

Step 3: Proof of Concept

Build minimal POC for top 2-3 options:

  • Core functionality
  • Integration test
  • Performance benchmark

Step 4: Total Cost Analysis

Build vs Buy

Build When

  • Core competitive advantage
  • Unique requirements
  • Long-term cost savings
  • Team has expertise

Buy When

  • Commodity functionality
  • Time to market critical
  • Ongoing maintenance burden
  • Industry standard exists

Decision Tree

Is it core to your business?
├── Yes → Does expertise exist?
│   ├── Yes → Build
│   └── No → Buy (for now)
└── No → Buy or use open source

Migration Planning

Migration Phases

1. Assessment - Current state analysis 2. Planning - Target architecture 3. Preparation - Team training, tooling 4. Migration - Incremental rollout 5. Validation - Testing, monitoring 6. Cutover - Final switch 7. Optimization - Post-migration tuning

Risk Mitigation

  • Run parallel systems
  • Feature flags for rollback
  • Comprehensive testing
  • Staged rollout
  • Clear rollback plan
