At my current team at a “bigcorp” I have noticed a similar pattern. We use aws not because it’s efficient in any way.

We use it because we don’t want to deal with slow procurement process. It kills all the momentum.

Exactly. I want to set up elastic search - I can either have procurement go through their sales, or be up and running via the marketplace in less time than it would take me to fill in the RFQ form to send to procurement.
