Do you keep the different backlogs separate or do you merge them together into one backlog in the end?

I keep it all in a single backlog. The upper the tickets are, the DEEPer they are.

Great post, Alex. I've had new backlogs to take over a few times in over the last couple years and these tips are solid to get a good handle on things.

Recently, I had an experience of switching from ServiceNow to JIRA on top of a new backlog to me. I think I purged stories from the 1900's. It was glorious.
