InfluxData's platform team migrated their core account and resource management APIs from Go microservices to a Rust monolith to reduce complexity and improve maintainability. They used a strangler fig migration pattern to migrate endpoints one by one without downtime, implementing hexagonal architecture with domain-driven design. The team of five completed the project in three months, achieving safer software through Rust's type system and faster development cycles.
