In the next lectures, we’re using a service called AWS ECS (Elastic Container Service).
Unlike EC2, it’s NOT covered by the AWS free tier – you can check the “Free Tier” page to see what’s included: https://aws.amazon.com/free/?all-free-tier.sort-by=item.additionalFields.SortRank&all-free-tier.sort-order=asc
You should therefore only follow along actively, if you are okay with incurring some costs. You’ll only be charged a few dollars if you follow along as shown (and you then remove all resources thereafter) – to learn more about the AWS pricing, please visit their pricing page: https://aws.amazon.com/pricing/

Important: You really should double-check to remove ALL created resources (e.g. load balancers, NAT gateways etc.) once you’re done – otherwise, monthly costs can be much higher!
