You've checked-out, so it's too late, but depending on the circumstances, this can be a situation for an experienced engineer to step in. The biggest challenges are political, but also triaging the issues and coming up with a migration plan. "Rewrite all the things" rarely goes well, especially if they already work, just on beefier hardware than is needed.
