I agree with you, but re-reading the original commenter's argument, he was saying that with AWS services you don't get seamless scalability, even though there's SQS, Kinesis, Firehose. I don't think he was complaining about the number of products, I think he was making a point that most AWS services don't seamlessly scale the way Google Services do. There's an interesting blog in the works by one of our customers, who "surprised" PubSub with 4.5 million messages per second, and kept on this test for about a week. One hell of a load test :) And this is especially true when looking at the product I work on, BigQuery.
