The current action associated to "Cost Explorer API", costs 0.01 USD per request. The overall idea of this ticket is to modify the AWS API call to another one (a simple and economic one), that is cheaper, to be able to test the solutions with load-tests without paying for those requests (and motivating users to test the deployment without additional costs).

Example of current costs reports because of the "Cost Explorer API":

Review existing parameters for the CDK stack in aws-cdk-ecs-api/cdk/lib/cdk-stack.ts.

• Improve parameters added, so that the Stack is more customizable for external users:
  • hostedZoneName
  • applicationPort
  • Validate other parameters/variables to improve (?)

The main idea of this ticket, is to explore and validate the usage of "ECS Exec", as a solution for entering the ECS containers. The result should be a way to implement it and/or the documentation of that approach in the README.md.
