Debugging serverless functions has always been challenging, often requiring repeated invocations, extensive log tracing, and cloud deployments to diagnose an issue. The new Lambda Debug Mode in LocalStack changes this by allowing developers to debug AWS Lambda functions directly in their IDE, with breakpoints, variable inspection, and step-through execution, without leaving their local environment.In this presentation, Marco Edoardo Palma provides a hands-on demo of Lambda Debug Mode—from debugging standalone functions to handling multi-function workflows. Learn how this developer-first approach makes debugging serverless applications faster, smoother, and more intuitive.## Resources- Documentation: https://docs.localstack.cloud/user-guide/lambda-tools/debugging/#lambda-debug-mode-preview- Samples: https://github.com/localstack-samples/localstack-pro-samples/tree/master/lambda-debug-mode

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.

LocalStack's core cloud emulator lets you emulate various cloud services on your own computer. This means you can develop and test your cloud-based solutions without connecting to a remote cloud.However, there are times when you need to seamlessly switch between your local setup and actual cloud resources, especially in hybrid situations. For instance, you might want to share a database with your local Lambda function or access S3 files stored remotely while running a Glue ETL job locally.With LocalStack's AWS Replicator extension, your local environment can replicate AWS cloud resources at the API level, allowing direct interaction with cloud services. The Replicator extension enables you to forward specific requests from LocalStack to AWS without complex proxy setups, and create test scenarios that involve a mix of local and cloud resources.Check out our tutorial — https://docs.localstack.cloud/tutorials/replicate-aws-resources-localstack-extension/

LocalStack's cloud emulator lets you run Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) clusters and tasks on your local computer. It's sometimes useful to mount code from the host filesystem directly into the ECS container. This helps quickly test changes without needing to rebuild and redeploy the ECS Task's Docker image each time.This video explains how to use code mounting with the ECS bind mounts feature.
