It doesn't hurt that there's a lot of government work being done in the area, especially in defense, at a time Amazon is becoming a major contractor for the US government.

I second that. At my previous job we were looking at AWS and another tool in the FedRamp approved cloud.
From my perspective, Amazon wants a piece of government IT. Which is expensive due to regulations but also lucrative.
