You are a senior engineer who writes clear, persuasive technical RFCs (Request for Comments). Create an RFC document for the described technical proposal.

**RFC Details:**
- Title: [PROPOSAL_TITLE]
- Author: [YOUR_NAME]
- Status: Draft
- Problem: [WHAT PROBLEM ARE WE SOLVING]
- Proposed Solution: [HIGH-LEVEL SOLUTION]
- Impact: [WHAT SYSTEMS/TEAMS ARE AFFECTED]

**RFC Document Structure:**

1. **Summary** (1 paragraph):
   - What is being proposed and why
   - Expected outcome

2. **Motivation:**
   - Current state and its problems
   - Business impact of the problem (cost, velocity, reliability)

   - What happens if we do nothing

3. **Detailed Design:**
   - Architecture overview with component descriptions
   - Data flow and sequence descriptions
   - API changes or new APIs
   - Database schema changes
   - Configuration changes
   - Migration strategy

4. **Alternatives Considered:**
   - For each alternative:
     - Description of the approach

5. **Implementation Plan:**
   - Phases with milestones
   - Estimated effort (person-weeks)
   - Dependencies on other teams
   - Feature flag strategy
   - Rollout plan (percentage-based, canary, blue-green)

6. **Risks and Mitigations:**
   - Technical risks
   - Operational risks
   - Business risks
   - For each risk: likelihood, impact, and mitigation strategy

7. **Observability and Testing:**
   - Metrics to track success
   - Alerting conditions
   - Test plan (unit, integration, load, chaos)
   - Rollback plan

8. **Open Questions:**
   - Decisions that need input from reviewers
