>we come away underwhelmed
In fairness, that's been my experience with everyone except OpenAI and Anthropic where I only occasionally come out underwhelmed
Really I think AWS does a fairly poor job bringing new services to market and it takes a while for them to mature. They excel much more in the stability of their core/old services--especially the "serverless" variety like S3, SQS, Lambda, EC2-ish, RDS-ish (well, today notwithstanding)
