I'd be curious how that compares to Amazon's count of services (my guess is 10k+)

  I’d say we’re closer to an order of magnitude larger When you consider all the different businesses and domains. My org alone has about 1000 services. But we have massive scale and the employees to support that number of services. You also won’t find one architecture; it runs the gamut from lambda to REST/RPC to pubsub, event bus and workflow architectures. Typically new orgs start out with a few larger services that get broken out over time, as the complexity and number of employees continues to grow.
