The larger cloud providers are going to slowly fill up all the holes in an effort to lock their customers into using that particular IaaS/PaaS provider.

Amazon has setting the bar which other cloud providers will need to follow to remain competitive.

However, at the post-March price, we believe users should shop around — they get significantly more functionality using third party tools such as CloudCheckr, Cloudyn, and CloudVertical for far less cost.

Great help to the user’s as we all have been waiting for native support since long for plenty of features those should have been published much earlier. Overlaps will happen no matter what as its a cut throat competition. Microsoft did the same long back & killed plenty of small companies. I’m sure there will be more of these & that’s a good news.
