Description
It would be good if we had a standardized context key for "cheap mode" deployments, which people could set on development mode stacks.
If set, the presence of the key would control:
- Smaller default instance sizes
- Lower default replication factors
- Use default KMS key instead of custom one
- VPS with only public subnets by default
- ...etc...
The advantage of having a single well-established key for this would be semantics: the alternative is ad-hoc keys established on a per-module basis, for the same functionality.
Not all modules have to support it, but the ones that do should trigger off the same key.
Support for this key in various modules can be added piecemeal via PRs and can be community-contributed.
