Lots of new businesses are started up and it may affect their decision. AWS is not all that cheap (can be, but requires smart architecting) and there are competitive pressures for them. They have to get more and more business to maintain their high growth rates, and a slower growth rate hits their stock price.
This also may inspire competitors to provide more guarantees or competitive technology that makes them less platform dependent. (I'm thinking about how a lot of small businesses have migrated off YouTube to alt-media sources)
Millions of small to large business owners will definitely think twice about associating their whole business with one platform.
I'm not so negative on it.
