LocalStack now provides enhanced support for running AWS services in Kubernetes environments. In this presentation from the LocalStack 4.0 community meetup by Simon Walker, we explore how to deploy and manage local AWS resources within Kubernetes clusters with LocalStack, to help developers maintain consistency between development and production environments.The session further covers LocalStack’s Kubernetes integration, including deployment via Helm charts, configuration of services like Lambda and RDS as Kubernetes pods, and networking between components. A demo illustrates provisioning a serverless application (Lambda functions interacting with a MySQL database) using Terraform, with all resources managed within a local Kubernetes cluster.You'll additionally learn the practical approaches for local testing and infrastructure emulation by moving from Docker to Kubernetes-native solutions as well as upcoming features, including broader service support and new container runtime options.## Resources- Documentation: https://docs.localstack.cloud/user-guide/localstack-enterprise/kubernetes-executor/- Get access: https://www.localstack.cloud/contact

How much faster could your cloud application release cycles move if your developers didn’t need to deploy code to the cloud?
Local cloud development eliminates the security implications, cost concerns, and access restrictions of traditional cloud development by replicating production-quality application environments on local infrastructure.

Modern software systems operate in complex, dynamic environments where failures are inevitable. Traditional monitoring and manual incident response are no longer sufficient to ensure resilience or customer satisfaction. This talk explores how to design and implement self-healing software systems by combining telemetry data with an AI-driven agentic approach. We’ll start by examining how high-quality telemetry forms the foundation for detecting anomalies and predicting failures. Next, we’ll show how modern GenAI (LLMs) can transform this telemetry into actionable insights for AI agents that interpret data, pinpoint root causes, and apply automated fixes. Through a practical, real-world example, you’ll see how telemetry and AI work together to create adaptive feedback loops that continuously improve system reliability, while freeing engineers from repetitive operational tasks.

In this hands-on session, you’ll learn how to level up your serverless development by integrating the AWS Toolkit for VS Code with LocalStack — enabling faster Lambda development, debugging, and testing without needing a live AWS account.👨💻 Featuring:Joel Scheuner, Senior Software Engineer at LocalStack, will show you how to:✅ Configure the AWS Toolkit for VS Code to connect with LocalStack✅ Deploy and test Lambda functions locally with full AWS emulation✅ Set breakpoints and debug functions right from your IDE✅ Iterate quickly on code changes with minimal setup overheadYou’ll also hear from an AWS engineer sharing real-world insights and best practices for modern serverless workflows.Whether you’re new to serverless or already deep in AWS development, this session will help you code with confidence and streamline your Lambda workflow from start to finish — all from your laptop.
