Why would OpsWorks' choice of configuration and deployment management software affect your own choice, unless you want some sort of hybrid?

This seems like it would also save us from writing a bunch of management scripts (around scaling, etc) which would be tied to AWS anyway (read: no inherent disadvantage since any solution in-house or not would require the AWS platform). I'm always looking for ways for us to reduce our code/services footprint and this would seem to do so without a huge amount of vendor lock-in.
