That also was my understanding. But just today a message from AWS
dropped in my inbox:

"....Starting today, you can now launch Amazon EC2 running Windows or
SQL Server instances in the the EU Region,  ...."

So there must be some way to run a relational database with EC2, as
the storage requirements of SQL Server and PostgreSQL are not THAT
different.
