Infrastructure teams struggle with growing YAML configurations and CloudFormation templates that take hours to understand and deploy. Daniel Ward, Microsoft MVP and consultant, shares proven strategies for transitioning teams to programming languages like those supported by Pulumi, including the 10% rule for change management and viral adoption techniques.
SEITENBAU GmbH faced a unique challenge - building a platform for 20+ independent projects, each with different tech stacks, deployment targets, and operational models. Instead of forcing standardization, they built an infrastructure buffet using Pulumi.
We’re excited to announce the new AI capabilities for Pulumi CLI powered by Pulumi Copilot that translate complex infrastructure changes into clear, human-readable explanations and help resolve deployment errors with actionable guidance. Enable these preview features with the --copilot flag.
At Pulumi, we are committed to accelerating your cloud infrastructure journey by eliminating barriers between your teams and the tools they need. Today, we’re thrilled to announce a game-changing milestone that puts unprecedented power in your hands: the v1.0.0 release of the Pulumi Go Provider SDK!
Overcoming the cost and complexity of mutli-cloud environments and managing infrastructure more effectively is a perpetual challenge. For thousands of companies growing Platform Engineering skills, the solution to these challenges may be closer than you think.
Managing large-scale infrastructure can be challenging, especially when you need to perform operations on specific subsets of your resources. Pulumi’s stack operations like pulumi up and pulumi destroy are powerful for deploying and tearing down environments, but sometimes you need more fine-grained control over which resources are affected.
Today, we’re excited to announce a highly requested feature that will save you time and reduce complexity in your workflows: the ability to exclude specific resources from stack operations using the new --exclude and --exclude-dependents flags.
These new flags complement the existing --target functionality, giving you powerful options whether you want to focus on a small subset of resources or exclude just a few from larger operations. No more workarounds or custom scripts to achieve selective deployments!
Platform engineering has emerged as a hot area, but is it truly an evolutionary step toward a greater way of developing and operating software? Or is it merely a fad and a rebranding of existing ideas?
Pulumi is excited to announce the release of Visual Import, a new feature that transforms the way platform teams onboard existing cloud infrastructure into Pulumi. With Visual Import, you can discover unmanaged cloud resources across your organization, organize them into logical units, and instantly generate high-quality Pulumi code—with AI enhancements built in.
Visual Import is now available for all Team, Enterprise and Business Critical customers with Pulumi Insights enabled.
One of the biggest challenges platform teams face when adopting infrastructure as code is migrating existing cloud deployments. Legacy scripts, manual configurations, and scattered resource ownership all slow down progress. Visual Import solves this by making the journey from cloud to code seamless and intuitive.
As part of the Pulumi IDP announcement at PulumiUP, we introduced the Pulumi Private Registry. For years, we’ve worked with organizations that have built their own internal developer platforms on top of Pulumi. During that time, we identified what we believe is the best method for creating flexible golden paths – a bottom-up approach that utilizes a central source of truth to drive golden paths. Thanks to Pulumi Private Registry, this approach has never been simpler.
Today, we’re excited to introduce Pulumi IDP (Internal Developer Platform), the latest evolution of the Pulumi Cloud Platform, designed to help organizations automate, secure, and manage everything they run in the cloud.
