If the value prop is that you're Heroku, but faster, I can understand that. I think it's misleading to say that deficiencies of Heroku have anything do to with AWS though. It's really, really easy to set up anycast [https://aws.amazon.com/global-accelerator/ https://aws.amazon.com/global-accelerator/] with ECS [especially if you're willing to pay for Fargate]. If your product does something meaningfully different than that, I'd love to know more. NB: I'm in no way affiliated with AWS or Heroku, just have experience with both in the past.
