Yep, second this. Company I work for uses S3, EC2 + Opsworks + VPC, RDS (aurora), elasticache, route53, cloudwatch (for logs) for our stack, I found it easy enough with the docs and various online guides. I cannot understand how any half-competent startup dev team would find it difficult, most of it can be done with point and click UI, especially for setting up your basic load balancer + web servers + database stack.
