> Are you Netflix? Because is not theres a 99% probability you dont need any of those AWS services and just have a severe case of shiny object syndrome in your organisation.

I think you don't even understand the issue you are commenting on. It's irrelevant if you are Netflix or some guy playing with a tutorial. One of the key traits of serverless offerings is how it eliminates the need to manage and maintain a service or even worry about you have enough computational resources. You click a button to provision everything, you configure your clients to consume that service, and you are done.

If you stop to think about the amount of work you need to invest to even arrive at a point where you can actually point a client at a service, you'll be looking at what the value of serverless offerings.

Ironically, it's the likes of Netflix who can put together a case against using serverless offerings. They can afford to have their own teams managing their own platform services with the service levels they are willing to afford. For everyone else, unless you are in the business of managing and tuning databases or you are heavily motivated to save pocket change on a cloud provider bill, the decision process is neither that clear not favours running your own services.
