At Pulumi, we’ve been at the forefront of revolutionizing infrastructure management and DevOps processes. We’ve built the industry’s most comprehensive secrets management solution for IaC, securing production cloud credentials and secrets for countless organizations. Now, we’re taking that expertise and applying it to the broader challenges of managing secrets at scale with an open ecosystem approach.

Pulumi Environments, Secrets, and Configuration (Pulumi ESC), launched in preview in October 2023, is now generally available.

This next-generation secrets management and orchestration service is built with a robust software engineering approach, designed to bring security and simplicity to even the most complex secrets management needs.

One of our core goals at Pulumi is to provide access to manage any cloud infrastructure with a single unified programming model. Whether it’s multi-cloud (AWS+Azure+Kubernetes), hybrid cloud (GCP+VMWare+Cisco), or managed services (Databricks+GitHub+Cloudflare), Pulumi makes it easy to deploy and manage infrastructure across all of your cloud environments using any of the 150+ cloud providers in the Pulumi Registry.

We’re excited to take this even further by introducing support for using any Terraform or OpenTofu provider from within your Pulumi programs. If there is a long tail Cloud or SaaS platform that has a provider for those ecosystems, it now works with Pulumi as well. And if your organization has built your own custom Terraform or OpenTofu provider to support an internal cloud platform, you can use it from Pulumi as well, without having to publish it to any registry.

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. These commands put AI and resource search at your finger tips right where Pulumi users spend most of their time, in the terminal iterating on their cloud infrastructure.

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.
