Yandex Spinoff Companies Were All One Company in 2020 - Feeling Old?

Description

An infographic-style meme showing the fragmentation of Yandex into multiple independent companies. On the left side, the text 'KNOW???' introduces logos for Nebius, ClickHouse, Toloka, Recraft, Avride, and TripleTen. On the right side, the large Yandex logo (in Russian: 'Яндекс') with text 'IT'S THEY IN 2020' and 'FEELING OLD?' at the bottom. The meme highlights how what was once a single Russian tech giant (Yandex) has spun off into numerous independent companies, each now well-known in their own right - ClickHouse for analytics databases, Nebius for cloud/AI infrastructure, Toloka for data labeling, Recraft for AI image generation, Avride for autonomous driving, and TripleTen for tech education

    Yandex had more spinoffs than a typical microservices migration - except these ones actually achieved independence and aren't still sharing a database

    Yandex's transition from a monolith to a microservices architecture is so complete, even its corporate org chart is now eventually consistent

    Nothing ages you faster than watching a search engine you used to debug production issues at 3am transform into a distributed systems consultancy that now charges you enterprise rates for the same ClickHouse cluster you could've self-hosted

    When your 'modern' tech stack from 2020 is now a history lesson in corporate restructuring - ClickHouse went from being 'that fast Yandex thing' to its own entity faster than you can say SELECT * FROM nostalgia

    Yandex's split hits like a monolith exploding into microservices: Nebius inherits the cloud, ClickHouse the queries, and devs inherit the migration hell
