We only use a few AWS products: Route53, EC2, VPC, EBS, and S3/Glacier. This feels like <20% of what AWS can do today.

Are these use cases not yet covered? I'd be OK with Route53 not being in the box, but surely we have VMs, storage and backups sorted by now, right?

How do you deploy your applications onto your EC2 instances? Do you create application-specific AMIs, use something like Ansible, something Windows-specific like WinRM, run your own container setup on EC2, or something else?

Our software has integral CI/CD capabilities. All built in-house. Once our services are installed on a machine, they can be upgraded from a centralized system.

First time setup is manual, but it could be automated if we got bored of the task. The binary distribution requires zero dependencies on the machine and brings its own database with it so bootstrapping is very easy.
