Why did they actually migrate databases? The real issue is database operations, not the database itself. The data model is simple so anything would've worked fine, and they already have a working system.
The proper solution is to onboard the proper talent and tools or outsource it all. MongoDB does have fully-managed offerings that will automatically migrate and run your database, across cloud-providers if you need, and would've cost less than all the time and effort spent on this. This is just another example of poor technical competency at media publishers.
