So what exactly are you asking?

Are you saying that paying for the AWS product is too expensive and you want to pay a consultant to talk about alternatives?

Are you looking for flat rate consultants to answer infrastructure questions for you?

Clarify your question and your goals.

UPDATED: Would like to know your thoughts! I was wondering, if companies can pay that much for consulting with AWS , why is consulting in general still considered something not to do , for instance VC's hardly fund any company that is doing consulting.

VCs don't invest because you can't scale consulting. It is by nature high-touch which you can't automate away with software.
