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!

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.
