This still doesn't compare well to alternatives, pending benchmarks with an actual application if I directly compare it to most other IOPS benchmarks.

So...no? I mean, I don't have to complain about EBS, it's really simple, I just don't use Amazon's stack therefore I have nothing to complain about.

Now if I was somehow stuck on their stack...like from building my product against their proprietary infrastructure...then I'd be stuck on my ass and complaining for an overpriced and underperforming service.

Their recommended solution is to use their proprietary KV store.
