If you pay for the highest level of support you will get extremely good support. But it comes with signing a NDA so you're not going to read about anything coming out of it on a blog.

I've had AWS engineers confirm very detailed and specific technical implementation details many many times. But these were at companies that happily spent over a $1M/year with AWS.

Nah if your monthly spend is really significant than you will get good support and issues you care about will get prioritized. Going from startup with 50K/month spend to a large company with untold millions per month spend experience is night and day. We have Dev managers and eng. from key AWS teams present in meetings when need be, we get issues we raise prioritized and added to dev roadmaps etc.

I was at a company that spent over $90M a year with AWS and we got defensive, limited comms.
