AWS Database Migration Service provides migration solutions from databases, data warehouses, and other types of data stores (e.g. S3, SAP). The migration can be homogeneous (source and target have the same type), but often is heterogeneous as it supports migration from various sources to various targets (self-hosted and AWS services). LocalStack supports DMS with selected use cases. In this session from LocalStack Community Meetup July '24, Mathieu Cloutier explores how to use LocalStack to migrate from a MariaDB database to an AWS Kinesis Stream. He goes over the differences between CDC and full load, and as a bonus you will see how easy it is to migrate from an external database to your Kinesis Stream — tested all on your local machine!

In this video, you'll learn how to set up and integrate LocalStack's Snowflake Emulator to develop and test your Snowflake data apps in your local environment or CI pipelines. Whether you're using Snowpark, various client libraries, or building interactive data apps with frameworks like Streamlit, this emulator simplifies your developer experience. We'll walk you through step-by-step instructions on installing the Snowflake emulator with the LocalStack CLI & Docker, configuring and integrating the emulator with popular SQL clients, such as DBeaver, and running SQL queries locally to replicate a full Snowflake environment without cloud dependencies. ⚡ Get early access! The Snowflake Emulator is currently in public preview—reach out to us for access and start building today!

Real cloud developers aren’t pushing straight to AWS. They’re building and testing everything locally before a single deploy goes live. This episode breaks down the modern cloud dev workflow and how tools like LocalStack make it possible to move fast without burning money (or trust). Learn how local-first dev culture is changing the cloud game.

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.
