If your software is valuable enough, Amazon will just reimplement it from scratch. Often Amazon entering the market for your software will grow the size of the market, taking most of the growth for themselves, but also increasing the amount of customers you get.

Not always really. Code commit/build/deploy still are some of the worst products in AWS and they're far behind Gitlab which is OSS.

Btw, I'm not really concerned about Amazon particularly, it's a general question about someone taking advantage of few years of work without putting in any effort.
