It was just pride since google is their rival, didn’t make any sense otherwise.

  I'm glad that I can run Kubernetes on AWS now (again), but I still can't run ECS on my laptop... hello Amazon? Are you home?

    I thought that’s what Blox is for https://github.com/blox/blox/blob/dev/README.md https://github.com/blox/blox/blob/dev/README.md

      Does this just use a tool that runs on your laptop, to schedule and manage ECS clusters on Amazon? That's really not what I was looking for... I was hoping to prototype ECS-based solutions without spending money on cloud resources. I have a laptop with 8GB+ RAM and a fast SSD, it doesn't have any trouble running fairly complex constellations on Minikube and I could later rebuild and/or install them on a production Kubernetes cluster, without any changes. Can I do something like that with Blox, or is this another different way to consume ECS and spend money on EC2 nodes to run containers? Edit: I would be satisfied if you told me, I still need to consume some AWS services like SNS and CloudWatch to use this toolkit, but that with Blox, I don't actually need to run my containers on ECS unless I want to expose them to the world. I haven't found any tutorial or guide that indicates this is anything other than a different scheduler for ECS.
