Breaking up with JavaScript front ends

I see this “AWS for everything” Well-Architected stuff everywhere. AWS benefits greatly from inserting itself in between all our architectural layers.

There’s nothing stopping companies from using the cloud for its primitives (compute and storage), maybe with managed FOSS services (RDS Postgres). We don’t _need_ to go all in on AWS to build a ‘modern’ web application. Yet somehow much of the industry dances to AWS’ tune on how to architect software.

And good luck with having a development environment or even decent end to end/integration testing once you start using all those services.

Architects in my company are required to have aws certificates. They can be monkeys but if they can list a dozen of AWS products and put everything there they are given the keys of everything.
