I should perhaps have clarified, but the 10-15 are not self maintained services. You need nginx for routing and ingress, set up cert-manager and other ingress endpoints are automatically configured to have TLS, deploy prometheus, which comes with node-exporter and alert-manager, deploy grafana.

So far, we're up at 6 services, yet still at almost zero developer overhead cost. Then add the SaaS stack for each environment (api, worker, redis) and you're up at 15.

those are basically all things that can be outsourced and not for much money (cloudflare etc)
