Is there anything a like license that would prevent cloud providers turning my software into a service they sell?

And at the same time is fully open for usage that does not sell it as a service?

AGPL is the closest but arguments abound over whether it covers orchestration/deployment layers.

And there's nothing saying they won't just reimplement your service (see AWS DocumentDB).
