AI is transforming how users interact with every category of technology today, and cloud infrastructure is no exception. Last year we launched Pulumi AI to combine generative AI with Pulumi’s knowledge of cloud infrastructure, helping users solve complex cloud development problems using Infrastructure-as-Code. Pulumi AI has seen rapid adoption and engagement, with tens of thousands of users leveraging Pulumi AI over the last year.

Today, we’re excited to introduce Pulumi Copilot, a huge leap forward in applying AI to cloud infrastructure management. Pulumi Copilot is a new conversational chat interface integrated throughout Pulumi Cloud, enabling Pulumi Cloud users to quickly accomplish a variety of cloud infrastructure management tasks by leveraging the power of large language models plus the rich capabilities of Pulumi Cloud.

Last October we launched Pulumi ESC, a new secrets and configuration management offering from Pulumi that manages and tames secrets and configuration complexity across all of your cloud applications and infrastructure. We’ve seen incredible adoption of ESC over the last 6 months, with thousands of developers now managing their secrets and configuration via ESC.

Today, we are excited to announce the most significant collection of Pulumi ESC enhancements since the initial launch, with three major new features that bring best-in-class software engineering capabilities to bear on your Secrets and Configuration management needs.

AI is impacting almost every industry today, and for good reason - we are seeing fundamentally new experiences being made possible across a wide variety of products, and a set of new AI capabilities that promise even more incredible change in the near future.

Software development is among the earliest and most prominent fields to realize the benefits of AI, evidenced by the rapid adoption of tools like Github Copilot which is now one of the most heavily adopted developer tools of all time. Developers are benefiting from an incredible increase in their productivity with better scale and faster time to market.

We’re seeing the impacts of AI in the cloud Infrastructure development space in two impactful and complimentary directions:

• 🤖➜☁️: AI is transforming how we author, build and manage cloud infrastructure
• ☁️➜🤖: Cloud infrastructure tooling is changing how we build and deliver AI-based applications

At Pulumi, we’ve already seen profound impacts from AI in both of these directions.

Earlier this year we launched Pulumi AI, a purpose-built AI assistant that can create Infrastructure as Code (IaC) from natural language prompts using Pulumi. Since launch, we’ve seen incredible adoption of Pulumi AI, with over 200,000 questions asked so far and growing fast. Pulumi AI is popular with users new to Pulumi and/or new to the Cloud, but also heavily used by many of the most advanced IaC users and organizations to quickly discover solutions to new problems they need to solve. Over the last few months, we’ve driven major improvements to Pulumi AI through the recently launched Pulumi AI Answers pages with thousands of AI generated answers to common questions, improvements to code generation correctness and performance, and expansion of the languages supported by Pulumi AI.

Today, we are taking the next big step, introducing support for deploying cloud infrastructure directly from Pulumi AI. Going from idea to running cloud infrastructure is just a natural language prompt away!

Over the last two years, we’ve seen a huge surge in adoption of Pulumi by Platform Teams – centralized teams within a business responsible for building out core cloud infrastructure and providing tools to the rest of the organization to maximize the productivity, cost efficacy, compliance and velocity of application and service delivery throughout the organization. These teams use Pulumi to manage their own cloud infrastructure complexity, to offer best practices components to their organizations, to enforce organizational policy, and to drive infrastructure delivery automation.

Today, we’re excited to introduce Pulumi ESC, a new product from Pulumi that manages and tames secrets and configuration complexity across all of your cloud infrastructure and application environments. Pulumi ESC introduces a new category of configuration-as-code product, motivated by our experience working with hundreds of Pulumi IaC customers to address their needs in managing secrets and configuration at scale within their Pulumi infrastructure and across other cloud applications and infrastructure projects.

Earlier this year we introduced Pulumi Insights, a collection of features that bring intelligence to cloud infrastructure using Pulumi. Two key components of that launch were Pulumi AI, a generative AI assistant purpose-built to create cloud infrastructure using natural language, and Pulumi Resource Search, multi-cloud search and analytics across every cloud resource and environment in your organization. Today, we are excited to bring Pulumi Insights into the pulumi CLI with the new pulumi org search and pulumi ai commands.

Since the very earliest days of the Pulumi project, Kubernetes has been a core part of the Pulumi platform. The initial Pulumi Kubernetes provider supported the entire API surface area of the Kubernetes platform, derived directly and automatically from the Kubernetes OpenAPI specifications, and available to all of Pulumi’s familiar programming languages. Since then, we have offered day one support for every new Kubernetes version, added support for Helm, YAML, Kustomize and CRDs, added tools for converting to Pulumi (kube2pulumi and crd2pulumi) and delivered the Pulumi Kubernetes Operator. During that same time, Kubernetes usage has continued to expand within the ecosystem and among Pulumi users, with the Kubernetes provider growing from the fourth most used to the second most used provider on the platform.

We are excited to release the next major version of our Kubernetes provider - Pulumi Kubernetes 4.0.

We recently released Pulumi AI, a purpose-built AI Assistant that can create cloud infrastructure using Pulumi. It builds on the power of Large Language Models (LLMs) and GPT to dramatically reduce the time it takes to discover, learn and use new cloud infrastructure APIs.

We’ve seen amazing engagement and stories from Pulumi users about the impact this tool has had for them over the past few weeks. In this post, we’ll dive deeper into this new technology, and share why we and so many other Pulumi users are so excited about Pulumi AI.

We’ve seen incredible acceleration of cloud adoption over the past 5 years. Pulumi’s flagship open source IaC solution gives engineers great tools to scale up their cloud infrastructure using the same programming languages and tools they already know and love. As a result, thousands of companies of every size and scale have adopted Pulumi as a lynchpin of their cloud infrastructure strategy.

Today we’re excited to announce Pulumi Insights, the next major productivity enhancement for infrastructure as code. Pulumi Insights provides intelligence, search, and analytics over any infrastructure, in any cloud across your organization, leveraging the latest advances in generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs). Whether you have an AWS VPC, a Kubernetes CRD, or a DataDog alarm definition, Pulumi Insights enables you to intelligently find and interact with all of your resources from within the Pulumi Cloud.
