Does AWS (or I guess maybe Azure) offer a Firebase alternative?

For an IRC style public chat app (the popular Firebase use case), is there a simple-to-use AWS solution that doesn't involve setting up the software/configuring it?

If not, then is setting up DeepStream on an AWS the best answer?

Serious question. Is there something available that can scale as easily?

Hmmm. Just checking and it looks like the EC2 data rates are $0.09GB up to 10TB and even less thereafter..

So.. if I understand correctly, Firebase is 10x more expensive??

It seems like it might be worthwhile to roll my own then..
