AWS no other choice? I am not sure if you are following what AWS does (like for example the MongoDB story).

>> The last thing Amazon wants is to be easy replaceable with a different provider. I guess this is same with the underdogs as well(i.e Google/Microsoft) and that's why they do all they can to lock you in with proprietary services(i.e Appengine, Datastore etc).

Datastore has S3 API and it is trivial to replace it with other products.

Datastore can't have an S3 API and is not easily replaceable. You linked to a different product(Cloud Storage).
