Discussion of Stop Using AWS.

I remember setting SSO in AWS, where Cognito was involved. It was a mess. It was frustrating. Many bugs. Many parts didn’t even work. It was about 3 years ago. In general all aws works with very slow web admin, everything is complicated with their iam/ roles/permissions and they actually let you program their service instead of providing a clear, intuitive and simple admin and SDK.

Setting up AWS Cognito for SSO is unreliable with multiple bugs and non-functional components. The integration experience is messy and frustrating, lacking stability and clarity.

Excessive setup complexity for simple deployments

Deploying a basic webapp to AWS requires navigating IAM Identity Center, SSO, permission sets, IAM roles, GitHub Actions/CodeBuild integration, OIDC setup, and service selection (Amplify vs CodeCatalyst vs others) before any code runs. Without pre-existing CI/CD infrastructure, the process is prohibitively complex compared to platforms like Vercel.
