Cloud Pods, a feature of LocalStack Pro, allow developers to save and restore their local cloud environment, enhancing efficiency in continuous integration (CI) and local development workflows. By capturing a complete snapshot of the LocalStack environment, including services, data, and resources, Cloud Pods function like Docker images for infrastructure state, facilitating rapid deployment and consistent test environments. The Cloud Pods CLI, integrated into the LocalStack CLI, enables users to save the current state, share it across teams, and load it on different machines or CI runners without additional installations. This tool is particularly useful for maintaining consistent states across test runs, speeding up CI jobs, and onboarding new team members. By leveraging Cloud Pods, developers can bypass the time-consuming process of redeploying stacks, share infrastructure setups easily, and ensure reproducibility, ultimately minimizing "works on my machine" issues.
