Thank you for the explanation!
I also feel this isn't really a fair comparison
AWS offers QuickStart or ElasticBeanstalk or Lambda that would cut in half the steps you're describing.

Comparing to AWS Lambda would not be comparing apples to apples. The code would likely need to be modified to fit with the handler format that Lambda expects. There are cold starts to consider. The list goes on.

However, comparing to Beanstalk probably would’ve made sense.
