LocalStack Resource Library

How much faster could your cloud application release cycles move if your developers didn’t need to deploy code to the cloud?

‍

Local cloud development eliminates the security implications, cost concerns, and access restrictions of traditional cloud development by replicating production-quality application environments on local infrastructure.

‍

Join us on Tuesday, December 16, at 1pm eastern time for a live demo webinar to learn more about:

• How LocalStack replicates production-quality AWS application environments on local infrastructure
• The unique advantages that local cloud environments provide for software developers
• Successful use cases where local cloud development unlocks velocity that developers can’t experience on the cloud

What if your software could fix its own bugs—before anyone even notices them? In this session, LogicStar co-founder Boris Paskalev shares how self-healing applications are becoming a reality—fixing bugs automatically, before they reach production or immediately after an issue is detected/reported. LogicStar combines classical computer science, deep tech research from the pioneers of “AI for Code” and Agentic AI to detect, reproduce, and fix real production issues with validated, test-backed pull requests.This session is for engineering leaders, PMs, and AI builders ready to rethink the boundaries of autonomy in software delivery.

Modern software systems operate in complex, dynamic environments where failures are inevitable. Traditional monitoring and manual incident response are no longer sufficient to ensure resilience or customer satisfaction. This talk explores how to design and implement self-healing software systems by combining telemetry data with an AI-driven agentic approach. We’ll start by examining how high-quality telemetry forms the foundation for detecting anomalies and predicting failures. Next, we’ll show how modern GenAI (LLMs) can transform this telemetry into actionable insights for AI agents that interpret data, pinpoint root causes, and apply automated fixes. Through a practical, real-world example, you’ll see how telemetry and AI work together to create adaptive feedback loops that continuously improve system reliability, while freeing engineers from repetitive operational tasks.

LocalStack’s core cloud emulator allows us to run our own cloud application - including its infrastructure - locally, which provides an efficient developer experience at the start of the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC). This experience enables us to build our product features in a way that closely matches what our customers are looking for — a comprehensive developer platform that facilitates local multi-cloud development across different providers and services.In this session from LocalStack Community Meetup April '24, Lukas Pichler showcases how to use the LocalStack core cloud emulator and other novel solutions, to build, test, and integrate new features in our LocalStack Web Application. He broadly discusses:• Application Overview• How do we enable local cloud development?How do we use LocalStack in CI?• How do we use LocalStack to enable application previews and E2E testing?• Conclusion

What happens when your cloud services fail? 💥In this final episode of our series, we dive into the LocalStack Chaos Dashboard to simulate real-world outages—like DynamoDB errors—and see how your app responds under pressure. Learn how to intentionally break your systems locally so you can ship more resilient applications in production.📘 Read the full blog post for step-by-step details: https://localstack-blog-preview-pr-121.surge.sh/break-it-till-you-make-it-chaos-engineering/

Bring your tests to CI/CD with GitHub Actions! In this episode, we’ll show how to integrate LocalStack into your workflow, so your tests run automatically on every push without touching real AWS resources.Whether you're testing Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, or beyond LocalStack makes it possible to run everything locally, even in your CI workflows.🔗 Read the companion blog post: https://blog.localstack.cloud/automate-your-tests-with-github-actions-and-localstack/

Check out the recording of the hands-on webinar featuring Yan Cui, AWS Serverless Hero, and Waldemar Hummer, CTO of LocalStack, to learn practical use cases around monitoring serverless applications for local dev&test loops. Learn the best practices for debugging serverless applications using various AWS services to support your serverless workflows while troubleshooting errors and performance issues.In this video, you will learn about:- Building and Deploying Serverless apps locally- Common patterns and workflows for testing Serverless apps- Troubleshoot errors and performance issues in dev&test loops- Implementing observability with distributed tracing with Lumigo- Local Serverless Development with LocalStack

In this talk, Teja explore the intricacies of the software supply chain and discuss strategies for protecting your software against supply chain attacks. He look sinto the risks associated with these threats, offer mitigation measures, and covers recommended practices for managing open-source software and Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs). This session aims to equip the audience with the knowledge and tools needed to enhance the security of their software supply chain.

Cloud pods are persistent state snapshots of your LocalStack instance that can easily be stored, versioned, shared, and restored. Cloud Pods can be used for various purposes, such as:• Save and manage snapshots of active LocalStack instances.• Share state snapshots with your team to debug collectively.• Automate your testing pipelines by pre-seeding CI environments.• Create reproducible development and testing environments locally.In this session from LocalStack Community Meetup July '24, Bart Szydlowski explores how to use Cloud Pods to accelerate your cloud development & testing. He showcases how you can get started with Cloud Pods, integrate them into your testing pipelines, and make it easy for your team members to be onboarded to your cloud infrastructure — running all on your local machine!Docs: https://docs.localstack.cloud/user-guide/state-management/cloud-pods/
