Has a real moat but invisible to agents. Add an MCP and you'd climb.

AWS's sovereign cloud survives because it's not replaceable by an LLM — it's a regulatory and physical moat. EU governments need data physically in EU territory, under EU legal jurisdiction, with contractual guarantees no US entity can access it. No LLM can build datacenters, sign sovereignty treaties, or bear liability for GDPR violations. The defensibility is real and durable.

How to defend

AWS should lean harder into liability assumption and audit trails — make the contract the product, not the infrastructure. Publish quarterly attestations that no US government has accessed customer data; make that the selling point, not the region itself.

  • Ship an MCP server and list it on Stork — biggest single point gain (+25).
  • Get listed in the Anthropic MCP registry, Cursor, or Claude Desktop (+20).
  • Expose API-key auth with a self-serve sandbox tier; remove sales-call gates (+15).
  • Publish an OpenAPI spec at /openapi.json or /.well-known/openapi (+10).
  • Publish a public changelog and ship in the last 90 days — silence reads as abandonment (+10).
