To most people, "mono" refers to
a single codebase, not a single deployed instance. I've worked on many monoliths that run multiple instances in production.
Microservices are no more or less scalable than a monolith. The main benefit of Microservices is allowing multiple teams to work independently from each other without everyone "stepping on each others toes". You can have scalable monoliths and unscalable microservices.
