LocalStack Service Tiers Reference
This skill provides knowledge about LocalStack service availability across pricing tiers. KECS uses LocalStack for AWS-compatible services, relying on free tier services for ECS integrations.
Quick Reference
Key Insight for KECS Development
ECS is NOT available in LocalStack Free tier - it requires Base tier ($39/mo). This is one of the primary reasons KECS exists: to provide a free, local ECS-compatible environment.
Pricing Tiers
| Tier | Price | Services |
|---|---|---|
| Free (Community) | $0 | 30+ services |
| Base | $39/mo | 55+ services |
| Ultimate | $89/mo | 110+ services |
