As soon as you start depending on multiple providers to spread out the risk for your workloads, it almost becomes a necessity to bring your own images if you want to be able to build consistent systems across disparate providers. Even if they haven't unnecessarily tampered with official distro images themselves, there's no guarantee that the Debian images they offer are for the same point releases/snapshot dates and so on. -- Jeremy Stanley
