$800k/yr is like the cost of 2-3 engineers. Even if they're capable of doing all of the work that used to have been done by aws, you don't have any room to expand without having to put up high capital costs, and certainly not on a dime.
It sounds amazing now, but wait till the future comes and you can no longer run your own data center as cheaply as amazon.
