There's still plenty of room for competition. Beanstalk is limited in its ability to innovate because it is simply a management layer on top of AWS, which will restrict its potential feature offerings.
I think smaller developers stand to reap huge productivity benefits from easier to use and more feature-rich platforms such as Heroku.
- jburwell 16y agoWhy is being a "simple" management layer atop AWS limiting? Bear in mind that Heroku is, in your terms, simply a management layer atop AWS. Using it as a technical yardstick and considering Amazon's strong financial position and commitment, it stands to reason that there is a long runway for Beanstalk's innovation.
