What do you mean when you say managed services? Because to me managed services are definitely not vendor lock-in because you can self-host most of those services and just migrate your data over.

With regards to permissions, I don't feel like it's possible to permission across an entire platform and not make it difficult to migrate over – do you know of any provider or platform that allows for cross-platform authentication with permissions?

I generally think of managed services as anything not run directly on EC2.

I agree about permissions. I'm just illustrating where the lock in occurs.
