Hi Everyone. I don’t normally do anything in the cloud group. Not for lack of interest but because there is so little time and so much in IT to keep up with. However, when I come across something that I think might be of interest I will of course try to share. Forgive me if this has already been posted here, at first glance I did not see anything.
There was an announcement on the Kodekloud slack today which read something to the effect of “run AWS on your laptop”.
As you all know I am Uber addicted to anything that can run on the laptop (most likely due to psychological trauma from early IT career when the meany admins would not let me into the precious server room or consoles) 🤣.
As I understand it localstack will allow you to emulate AWS and play around with AWS api locally on your computer.
The potential for being ably to cheaply prepare for an exam or prepare offline seems great here. Again, since I am not an AWS expert I don’t know how well this really works but I thought it worth bringing to everyone’s attention. Here is the website: https://localstack.cloud/
Here is the video:
