aws has made infrastructure easily accessible to many without large outlay of capital, but with capabilities comparable (or even exceed) to any physical infrastructure you can buy.
this has made software services much easier to sell. in a world without AWS, only monied interests can hope to bring a service in any scale. even in the face of vendor login, AWS has increased the democracy of starting a new business.
In my experience, its actually at real scale (tens of millions of concurrents) that you want to move off of AWS, and at smaller scales where it makes the most sense.
