" summary

Claims a path from a giant Rails monolith to incremental Node micro‑web apps by shipping one page at a time, proving a tiny CoffeeScript Node app of 238 lines can carry over half of first‑time web traffic; builds an experiment‑driven routing layer (Finch/BirdCage) to AB test and shift traffic, a shared layout service with mustache templates and versioning, and moves to containerized bundles with Docker and MAOS scheduling; starts with twelve initial teams and ends with 30+ small applications, and the migration works with measured parity and gradual ramping.
