What's funny to me, is that I focused on something completely different; how independent these teams at Amazon are. The move from pretty different infrastructure services, all at the same company. I can't think of a single place I've worked at in 20 years where these infra teams wouldn't be either: a.) mandated, i.e., "you will stick with lambda/kubernetes/whatever", or b.) review and be involved in the architectural decisionmaking of the video service approach, i.e., have to politick your way around any deviation.
I guess the shift from "mono to micro" just isn't very interesting to me. You can usually change your definition of either concept to fit your architecture. This just seemed like the team did the math and revised their approach. Good for them!
