Why is a commuter rail travel system dependent on AWS? O___O

From what I’ve seen about Government IT it’s probably a good thing it’s on AWS.

Why shouldn’t Government IT be using the same tools regular companies use for IT?

Government IT using AWS is fine. Using it for safety critical things like railways is a lot more of an issue. What if there's any kind of latency etc?

They decided to run their infra in AWS instead of another cloud provider or on-prem?

why is McDonalds dependent on AWS for their app to work? (/s)
