I think this is the answer: https://aws.amazon.com/ivs/ It's branded as an AWS service but it's delivered over the Twitch CDN.

Other way around. It's branded as twitch, but delivered over aws. Twitch doesn't own any infrastructure.
So what's the difference between AS46489 and AS16509?
99.181.66.216 belongs to AS46489 [0], mainly used to serve Twitch. AS16509 is your standard AWS cloud AS hosting data center IPs.

One is amazon for unspecified purposes and the other is amazon providing service long term to twitch.
