The subtitle is "The move from a distributed microservices architecture to a monolith application helped achieve higher scale, resilience, and reduce costs."

And the article itself mentions the 90% cost reduction.

So the title seems pretty much in-line with the original intent.

The title makes it sound like Prime Video abandoned microservices all-together, but in reality they only did so for a single service.
Prime Video has hundreds of teams, VQA is a tiny team that owns a very specific QA service. Omitting that distinction from the title absolutely is clickbait.
