Testing AWS CI/CD pipelines in the cloud can be slow, error-prone, and hard to debug, especially when you're wrestling with IAM permissions or waiting on long feedback cycles. This session walks through how you can now emulate complete DevOps workflows locally using LocalStack.We cover recent additions to LocalStack that support new service providers such as: CodeBuild: Run build processes across different runtimes directly on your machine CodeDeploy: Emulate deployment steps without touching the real infrastructure CodePipeline: Create and test CI pipelines, transitions, and triggers locallyThrough a live demo, we’ll walk through a working example of a CI/CD pipeline — building a Rust project, deploying it, and running the pipeline stages — all without leaving your laptop.This session is useful for developers building or debugging AWS-native CI/CD workflows and looking for faster, more controlled ways to test them.

Cloud-first development kills your inner dev loop. There's a better way.TypeDB on AWS is powerful — Lambda functions querying complex relationship hierarchies, recursive schema functions resolving transitive memberships, all without application logic. But iterating on schemas and queries in the cloud is slow and expensive.Harsh Mishra introduces the TypeDB extension for LocalStack: run a fully functional TypeDB server inside your local AWS environment and connect your app exactly as you would in production. Faster iteration, zero unnecessary spend.

Are Property Graphs living up to the hype? Maybe the model itself is the problem.We made the move from relational databases to graph databases to escape "Join Pain" and model the real world more naturally — but for many engineering teams, that promise has curdled into something worse: the Spaghetti Graph.Complex queries. Ugly workarounds for multi-party relationships. Fragile schemas that shatter with every iteration and become a nightmare to maintain.The good news? The problem isn't your data.In this talk, Joshua Send breaks down why standard Labeled Property Graphs (LPGs) fall short when applied to complex domains — and introduces TypeDB, a strongly-typed database that brings together the connectivity of a graph with the integrity of a relational model.You'll come away understanding:Why LPGs struggle at scale and complexityWhat "Spaghetti Graphs" are and how teams fall into the trapHow TypeDB's type system enforces data integrity without sacrificing flexibilityWhen a strongly-typed graph database is the right tool for the jobWhether you're deep in a graph migration, evaluating database architectures, or just tired of schema chaos — this one's for you.

When it comes to productivity, developer experience is more than just a buzzword. Creating an intuitive developer experience could help you get more out of LocalStack by democratizing access, cutting out manual tasks, and making environments more easily interchangeable between LocalStack and AWS.On a day-to-day basis, this could mean fewer tickets, less time spent creating environments, and more time on the important work that your environments support.This demo session will show how LocalStack’s new integration with Quali Torque can accelerate deployment on both LocalStack and AWS by:* Using generative AI to create reusable environment templates that can be deployed to LocalStack and AWS interchangeably in just a few clicks.( Providing a self-service catalog for your teams to find and provision environments quickly and easily—and without access to create or modify resource configurations.* Simplifying the deployment experience by eliminating complexity and security requirements to run environments on AWS.* Tracking all activity to identify performance issues for LocalStack deployments and wasted cloud costs for AWS deployments proactively.
