they already offer workmail, remote desktops etc at a similar model (some small dollar amount per month per user). I think this is probably aimed at people whose data is in AWS anyway, so they can get it into dashboards for marketing analysis easier.

if you want api-level analytics stuff and dashboards, have a look at amazon mobile analytics. it's an interesting alternative to google analytics that lets you control the session key (so it's easy to correlate events from front-end and back-end), and the event data is also yours (so it can easily be exported).

Didn't know about workmail! I suppose that's closer to an infrastructure product vs an app like analytics. Isn't a mail server just an API for mail clients to connect to?
