Large enterprise solutions usually have maintainers or source a company to do maintaining for them.
Startups in today's world - not necessarily 'startups', but also new products - move too fast for maintenance; by the time they pivot, the old stack is easier to replace with whatever new fancy system was sold to stakeholders.
