The issue of the application artifact size is definitely real and it blocks some NLP/ML workloads for sure. Consider that a today problem that isn't hard in Lambda.

But we've 100% got customers doing near realtime streaming analytics in complicated pipelines feeding off of things like Kinesis Data Streams. This FINRA example is one datapoint: https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/case-studies/finra-data-val... and this Thompson Reuters one: https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/case-studies/thomson-reuter...

These are nontrivial and business critical workloads.

I'm not going to make any elaborations on my comment now. Please feel free to edit yours or post another to answer anything I raised. Your original reply containing some generic sales brochures isn't what I expected from someone representing aws stepping into this discussion.
