AWS Emulator: Amazon's Free, Public-Domain Local AWS Is a Game Changer for Local Development and Startups

On 11 November AWS shipped AWS Emulator: a local copy of its APIs, free, no account, public domain, 438 service models. I ran it on a Mac the next day: healthy in 0.42 s, DynamoDB calls in 2.5 ms, AWS's own errors, a Lambda that actually ran. Why it changes the inner loop, and the maths for a ten-person startup.
