In this session, Maximillian Hoheiser discussed developing & testing AWS Data Streaming with LocalStack! In this talk, he focused on Kinesis Data Firehose, an AWS service that allows you to extract, transform, and load streaming data into various destinations like Amazon S3. He dived into how to set up testing for Kinesis Firehose and seamlessly integrated it with other services using Boto3 and CDK/CloudFormation. Maximillian led a live demonstration, showcasing how to set up a practical business case, implement it, and rigorously test it using LocalStack.

LocalStack Applications in Developer Hub provides sample templates to help LocalStack users adopt real-world scenarios to rapidly and conveniently create, configure, and deploy applications locally.
Getting started with Step-up-authentication demo
In this demo, we will setup a step-up authentication workflow for a higher level of security, deployed using Cloud Development Kit on LocalStack

Running your Spring Boot app on AWS for production is common, but testing there can be slow and costly. In this video, we’ll show you how to speed up development using LocalStack. By provisioning your infrastructure with Terraform, you can easily switch to local testing in just three steps: configure your dev environment variables, start LocalStack in Docker, and run your IaC files. Get faster feedback and reduce costs by testing locally with LocalStack!

In this live session, WireMock CTO Tom Akehurst will introduce hybrid API simulation (local + cloud) with WireMock Runner. Tom will explain why we built Runner, how developers are using it today, and how it fits into modern dev and test workflows - such as simulating APIs during testing, prototyping, and AI-native development.
