AWS couldn't build a Heroku-like PaaS if their entire business depended on it. They're organizationally incapable of something so simple, beautiful, and productive. I legitimately believe there's a checklist at the bottom of every new AWS service launch, and among their internal requirements includes a line like "Is this product so amazingly incomprehensible that customers will take weeks to integrate with it and be forced to upgrade to a technical support plan?" The closest any major cloud player has gotten is App Engine. And its pretty close; it has issues, and some inherent complexity, but generally I recommend any new startups look to either App Engine or Heroku for hosting. Avoid AWS like the plague.
