We'll review the Terraspace Cost Estimation instructions and then do something fun. We'll see what some of the example modules from the Terraform Registry costs. The cost estimates 🤣

ec2: $8.39/mo
complete ec2 example: $1,287/mo 😱
ecs-spot: $141.58/mo
ecs-fargate: $142.30/mo - Note there are nuances with the fargate pricing. You'll pay what you use for. Generally, it's more expensive since there's an overhead for the price of convenience
ecs-managed-node-group: $176.95/mo - Note, to be fair there are 2 node groups in this example. It's an extra $35/mo for the additional node group.
