I think the internal tech is definitely part of original AWS, but of course, quickly it grows beyond that, and the majority of aws has no relevance with other Amazon tech. But the statement is definitely right at the beginning.

Plus, AWS no longer use such narrative anyway.

No it never was. AWS was always built from the ground up to be an external service. A number of publicly available interviews say the same thing.

Edit: that’s not the right podcast. This was before he went to AWS. I can’t for the life of me find the interview.
