The AWS people now are just like the IBM people in the 80s - mastering a complex and not standards based array of products and optional product add-ons. The internet solutions were open and free for a few decades and now it’s AWS SNADS I mean AWS load balancers and edge networks.
AWS services are usually based on standards anyway. If you use an architecturally sound approach to AWS you could learn to develop for GCP or Azure pretty easily.
Nobody ever got fired for buying AWS!

These days we just call it licensing Red Hat.
that's funny, since IBM is actually promoting one very fat and reliable server.
