I've deployed multiple open sourced netflix java services and each one of them was archived and no longer maintained according to the repos.

Are they still being developed internally and the foss repos are basically without the secret sauce? Or are these projects "done"? Did Netflix move on to replacement tools?

I'm referring to things like hystrix and .. a queue system I can't recall right now. This was a long time ago but that queue system was a bit of a rough roll out and IIRC I had to make a fair amount of code changes to get going.

Not biting the hand that feeds me, just curious about how netflix treats projects like those. I'm usually extremely apprehensive about deploying archived things but a few teams wanted to use them. I don't know if things are archived because they're done, perfect, terrible, cooked, deprecated, insecure..

edit: Oh I hadn't looked at it in a long time, the hystrix repo explains it well on the readme. I'm not sure if the other project I used did that.
