Lessons in iteration from a new team in infrastructure

What this post added

This post details lessons learned by the Scalability Team in their project to investigate and improve Redis usage. Key takeaways include the importance of focusing on impact, applying Minimum Viable Change (MVC) principles to scaling problems, and structuring projects to deliver impact throughout. The team learned to prioritize tangible results over extensive visibility work and to iterate on smaller, impactful changes rather than a large, monolithic approach. They also emphasized updating documentation earlier in the process and proactively addressing issues with relevant teams.
