What you'd do in that situation is make the best of that $1M contract you're stuck with anyway, while being flexible enough to migrate away from that solution when it actually makes sense to do so. Just because you've made a huge mistake doesn't mean that making a different choice after-the-fact is more sensible. Hindsight is always 20/20.
