Introduction
Meta’s engineering teams recently undertook one of the most ambitious migrations in the company’s history—transitioning the entire data ingestion system that powers the social graph.

The move from a legacy architecture to a new, self-managed warehouse service was critical for ensuring reliability at hyperscale. In this article, we explore the strategies and architectural decisions that made this large-scale migration a success.
