1. AWS got business advantage of buying 100+ services at once, without going through procurement, invoicing, GDPR Data Processing Agreements, on/off boarding, same support, good security and uptime, credibility of keeping backward compatibility for decades etc.
There should be open platform that would eliminate that advantage.
2. EC2 and S3 when used properly would be harder to beat. You can get reserved discounts, spot, elasticity... Moving them would require paying for bandwidth which easily makes playing field uneven.
3. The higher layer of services CloudWatch, ElasticSearch, Cognito got much higher margins, yet lacking functionality and quality. Much easier targets for disruption.
