If we go with AWS, we could also use this for our authentication solution: https://aws.amazon.com/cognito/

https://github.com/awslabs/aws-cognito-angular-quickstart -> sample Angular app using the above authentication solution as well as S3. I think that app is client-only. We could do that as well for our auth stuff or we could put that code in our back-end

On the other hand, Google is a champion of the PWA effort and they also own firebase. Firebase docs has this whole page: https://firebase.google.com/docs/projects/pwa. Pretty convincing stuff
