Our company migrated for very similar reasons - I'm surprised that people aren't mentioning this pain point more. Maybe the overall execution of microservices is poor, so people generally would rather go back to the old thing.

We deployed to prod 30x a day at Coinbase, precisely for this reason.

It worked great and I was honestly shocked when I worked for other companies that plan their releases like they're shipping shrink-wrapped CDs in 1999.

I've found it to be much harder to manage and deploy multiple projects that it was to deploy a war. It's also been a huge PITA to test the newer architecture because all these serverless artifacts need to be deployed together. What we have now is a distributed monolith, just like the article refers to.
