> If you disallow Amazon, maybe there is a third party that offers our services to Amazon. So Amazon-the-string is not the bogeyman; the concern is the resale or hosted-service arrangement they can access

That's some acrobatics I suspect Amazon won't engage in, because communicating to the customer that your FooBarDB is managed in AWS but hosted by a third party is awkward.

Amazon will happily reimplement your API with their backend, as they've done before.
