Wouldn't it be possible for an entity such as Amazon to establish a separate legal entity and thus circumvent MongoDB's Server Side Public License ?

The separate entity would provide the "raw" service (where there wouldn't be much to open source) to Amazon, possibly running MongoDB directly on their infrastructure, then Amazon would turn it into a full-fledged SaaS offer.

A SaaS offer sounds like offering MongoDB as a service. The lawyers would enjoy hashing that out for billable hours.
