A previous employer that underwent a massive multi-billon dollar migration to SOA (and then folks went too far and made everything a micro-service so had to rollup some work) basically because merging became too slow into our monorail as we got to ~O(1k) engineers. We had an in-house solution like this that we used for 2-3 years (and a worse version for years before that). What a great idea to productive it!

IMO the SOA migration simply due to merging was such a heavy-handed solution. If we could have made our MergeQueue way better, perhaps we could have avoided that multi-billion dollar (+ the rollback work) fiasco.

Congrats!

Wow, that's a great story, maybe we should quote that :) If you are open to sharing more of that experience, I would love to hear that. You can also directly email me at ankit[at]mergequeue[dot]com if you don't want to post publicly.
