Andrews will show how to set up a cost-effective local Java development environment using TestContainers and LocalStack, while Breno will share how Clean Architecture and Azure's tools helped achieve significant cost savings. Learn practical techniques for cutting expenses and enhancing cloud efficiency.

**🎙️ Speaker 1: Andrews dos Reis**

These days, having production code in an environment that isn’t defined by Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is almost unheard of. To make cloud development more accessible, consider using TestContainers and LocalStack for your Java projects.
In this hands-on session, Andrews will tell you how to create a fast and cost-effective local development environment by emulating AWS services. With TestContainers and LocalStack, you can build and test your applications locally, without relying on real cloud resources—saving time and cutting down on expenses.

**Key takeaways**

* **Quick setup:** Learn how to configure TestContainers and LocalStack for AWS service emulation.
* **Cost reduction:** See how local emulation can reduce development and testing costs.
* **Hands-on demonstration:** Watch a live integration of these tools in a Java application.
* **Optimized workflow:** Discover strategies for streamlining your development process and speeding up feedback loops.

**🎙️ Speaker 2: Breno Nunes**

What if a small architectural change could save your company hundreds of dollars every month? By using Azure's powerful tools and applying Clean Architecture principles, Breno redesigned the infrastructure at his project to achieve substantial cost savings while maintaining performance.
