LLMs for coding are new. There are lots of alternatives, and there's a burgeoning open source compliment.

Yeah, compared to AWS the lock-in effect is tiny. I'm sure there are highly prioritized plans to "improve" on this.

I guess they would need to control/"own" more of their customers data in proprietary formats. Not markdown/source code in English with agents running on customers' machines.

Something cloud/web-based, "preferably".
