<i>Everyone is ultimately proprietary even in the Open Source world. Once you invest heavily in any sort of architecture or platform, you’re not moving anywhere with your current investment.</i><p>I’ve argued this point repeatedly in real life and on HN. The people who don’t want to use any of AWSs proprietary infrastructure or developers who want to use the repository pattern for the sole purpose of “not locking themselves” into one vendor.<p>I’ve never in 20+ years seen a major organization switch from a well known vendor to save a few dollars. Even if you theoretically can change your infrastructure, the risks and  the amount of regression  testing you have to do hardly ever makes it worthwhile to switch infrastructure.<p>As far as open source coming to the rescue, if someone else doesn’t takeover an open source project, more than likely, your company won’t either.
