Interesting, thank you for the context. My company's current system is simpler in nature I think (three web servers processing internal and external requests, one DB server, one app server handling everything else, and that's our problem) and scales not at all. We're going from one monolith to another, but set up in a way that can be scaled out arbitrarily, and overall more flexible and robust.

Generally I'm interested in stories of these big do-overs because it hasn't been the smoothest of sailing for us.
