But how much value does "a good look" have to AWS?



Depends on who sits in the antitrust seat. It's pretty incredible to realize the one who does today wrote this a few years ago: https://www.yalelawjournal.org/pdf/e.710.Khan.805_zuvfyyeh.p...


I'm fairly skeptical that Amazon would seek out a "good look" like the one here, solely in hopes that it will save them from antitrust scrutiny.


AWS tends to optimize for whatever its customers want, rather than what its partner ecosystem wants. However we did spend some time trying to help open source partners figure out how best to work with AWS and to leverage the marketplace etc. to be successful by leveraging the platform rather than fighting with it. Mongo is a good example of how that can work.
