I guess I should disclose that I work at AWS. But it’s publicly well documented how the infrastructure of AWS came to be. Much of the Amazon infrastructure predates AWS and was built on homegrown systems. A lot of wasn’t ported over.

There were no publicly available APIS for years to automate anything. Every AWS native service is API first.
