Hasn't this been amazon's MO the last couple years? Competition with their in-house versions hasn't prevented AWS from building anything before.

It's not really an admission that one is "better" than the other, it's just an admission that people like managed drop-in replacements for tools that they're already using.

As a side note, I'm interested why Facebook doesn't have a cloud offering yet. I'd love to see more players in this space.

Would you really want “sponsored” rows automatically appearing in your Facebook-managed database?

I briefly read through those leaked FB files, I think they're on NBC News. There was an email and other documents that showed they were thinking about opening a cloud offering multiple times, but it seems they never got round to launching it in the end.
