AWS track

Databases, caching and compute, run the same way at 3am as at launch.

19 products get the full treatment — a one-way-door decision, cost mechanics, scaling limits, failure modes, lifecycle changes and the wrong-tool case, in dependency order. Everything else in the catalog gets an entry page only.
