Once you factor in the learning time for AWS per a developer the cost is even higher.

At my previous company we had project with an AWS deploy process that only two developers could confidently use. Teaching a new developer & keeping them up to date was a big time sink.

For comparison we had a Rails app setup on heroku that on day one junior devs were happily deploying to (plus we had Review apps for each PR!)

This is a good point. Expecting developers to understand how to configure service to service IAM permissions and all the other nuances of AWS infrastructure is a fool's errand. Also one of the reasons we started Stackery.
