Pulumi Cloud empowers engineers to automate, secure, and manage modern infrastructure platforms.

Many companies are building internal developer platforms or modern infrastructure platforms to provide developer self-service while maintaining security and compliance. Companies adopt Pulumi IaC so they can apply software engineering practices to their infrastructure scaling problems and because it is fully open source with a strong community and public roadmap.

At Pulumi, we’re committed to open source—always have been; always will be. Pulumi IaC is entirely open source (Apache 2.0 license), meaning you can adopt and extend it however you like. If you’re new to Pulumi, the open source edition is an excellent way to start modernizing your infrastructure. But as your organization grows and the complexity of your environment increases, you may find yourself devoting significant time to rolling your own enterprise IaC backend features.

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has revolutionized how cloud resources are managed, allowing for more efficient, scalable, and repeatable deployments. We designed Pulumi IaC to let you program cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages like TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Go, .NET, Java, and YAML. This approach not only simplifies the process but also integrates seamlessly with existing development tools and ecosystems (e.g., IDEs, standard unit test frameworks, integration test). You can define infrastructure with code, often in just one line, for serverless, Kubernetes, AI/ML, databases, and more. You can also preview changes before deploying unlike many other IaC solutions. Pulumi IaC is fully open source with a public roadmap. We value working with the community to shape the product through feedback and contributions.

Pulumi is excited to be at AWS re:Invent this week, where we’re showcasing our broad and deep support for AWS across all our products. From automating infrastructure with Pulumi IaC to securing secrets with Pulumi ESC to managing cloud assets with Pulumi Insights, Pulumi makes AWS a competitive advantage. Whether you’re a developer, DevOps pro, or platform engineer, Pulumi delivers the tools you need to build and manage modern cloud applications with ease.

Stop by the Pulumi re:Invent booth #370 this week to chat with experts on the Pulumi team. If you can’t make it to re:Invent, join our workshop, Accelerating Platform Engineering with Pulumi on AWS, on December 11, 2024, to see how Pulumi can enhance your cloud operations on AWS.

The cloud promised to revolutionize your business.

Faster innovation. Lower costs. Unlimited scalability.

But for many companies, that promise remains frustratingly out of reach. Instead of accelerating product development, infrastructure has become a bottleneck. You and your team (DevOps, platform, or infrastructure engineering teams) are bogged down by:

• Clunky tools and manual processes
• Provisioning a simple test environment takes days
• Rolling out updates across regions takes weeks
• The combinations of modern cloud architectures seems infinite

You know there has to be a better way. A way to truly harness the power of the cloud and turn it into your competitive advantage.

Today, we’re excited to announce that the Pulumi open source project has crossed the incredible milestone of 20,000 stars on GitHub. 🎉 This is a huge achievement, and it wouldn’t have been possible without y’all - our incredible global community of developers.

Since its inception, Pulumi’s vision has been rooted in enabling teams to build and manage modern cloud infrastructure using familiar languages and tools. Over the years, your feedback, contributions, and passion have been invaluable in shaping Pulumi into what it is today. Seeing so many developers embrace our modern approach to cloud infrastructure management is really exciting. We are deeply grateful for the trust y’all have placed in us, and we will continue to push the boundaries in how teams manage cloud infrastructure.

If you’ve been following along with our IaC Recommended Practices series, then you’re already familiar with Zephyr Archaeotech Emporium, the fictional company at the center of the series. Today, you’ll get an inside look at how Zephyr starts using Pulumi for locally testing the application code for their online store and accelerating the inner dev loop for their development team.

This is the first in a series of blog posts that explores how a fictional company—Zephyr Archaeotech Emporium—uses Pulumi to manage their online retail store. This post explores a couple common questions that users ask when working with Pulumi; specifically, where should I store my Pulumi code? And how do I support multiple environments with Pulumi? This post will provide some guidance and Infrastructure as Code best practices around these topics, using Zephyr and their online store as the use case.
