You can certainly build platform agnostic applications on top of AWS/Google/etc. but it requires more “work”. Using a 
platform like OpenShift from Red Hat is one solution.

HashiCorp Nomad plus Terraform.  That's pretty much it.

I'd say it starts to be "inconvenient approaching impossible" only at
the point where you begin to use Cloudformation — or when you don't
have automated deployment at all.  While the provisioning tools are
provider agnostic, a move from a provider to a provider would take
days at most.
