Your AWS stays yours

CLI and Team deployments run in the AWS account you connect. You retain account ownership and pay AWS directly for the resources your applications use.

Start with the right commitment

Use Sandbox to evaluate the workflow, CLI for a local self-managed path, or Team when your organization needs shared controls and operational visibility.
