How would you do it?

Bringing those dependencies in under one roof doesn't eliminate their risk. Though it does increase the chance that an error in one of these small dependencies brings down the whole system.

With microservices if one of the services runs into trouble, you can ignore it and still serve the other 90-99% of your site without it. You can also deploy updates to services without having to deploy your entire site.
