Last year we launched Organization Access Tokens for Pulumi Cloud, service tokens not tied to individual users, ideal for garnering programmatic access for continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) tools and other automated processes. After launching this feature we saw record level adoption, with a majority of customers who could use it creating Organization Access Tokens within a matter of weeks.
This blog post summarizes a presentation by Matt Stephenson at PulumiUP 2023. Matt Stephenson is Senior Principal Software Engineer for Starburst Data and a Puluminary member. He’s deeply involved in the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) space, having contributed to Ansible, been a core contributor to Apache jclouds, and has written many Terraform plugins. He leads infrastructure architecture at Starburst and originally introduced Pulumi to the company. Starburst provides a data lake analytics platform that’s powered by Trino - an open-source distributed SQL query engine designed for running fast analytic queries across large datasets in multiple data sources.
Today we are launching Pulumi’s new Migration Hub, a comprehensive guide to help you seamlessly adopt Pulumi no matter where you are coming from, whether that’s Terraform, CloudFormation, … or even manually provisioned resources not yet governed by an infrastructure as code solution. Our new Expert Services group is ready to roll up their sleeves to help you adopt Pulumi faster. The Migration Hub also features many commercial offers for open source foundations, startups, and complementary migration, to minimize switching costs and risks. It’s never been easier to adopt Pulumi.
Pulumi stands with the open source community. We are unaffected by HashiCorp relicensing their software yesterday, and express profound support for many of our cloud friends who have been affected. Pulumi is true open source, uses the Apache 2.0 license, and does not and never will depend on BSL-licensed software in any way, HashiCorp owned or otherwise. We look forward to continuing to serve our new and loyal customers, always with open source and our amazing, fast-growing community at our core.
Pulumi Cloud Resource Search AI assist functionality is now generally available to all organizations! In addition we have shipped some improvements to the feature to make it easier to use and more discoverable: a toggle on the search bar, suggested queries and an “I’m Feeling Lucky” button to generate a random query for you.
This blog post summarizes a presentation by Dennis Sauvé at PulumiUP 2023. Washington Trust Bank, the largest independently-owned full-service commercial bank in the Northwest, has served personal, private, commercial and wealth management clients throughout the region since 1902. It has assets exceeding $11 billion and currently has 42 branches and offices in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. As an FDIC-governed financial institution, it is imperative for the bank to maintain secure, reliable, and compliant cloud resources to protect clients’ personal data.
Welcome to the sixth post in our series of blog posts focused on infrastructure as code (IaC) recommended practices. So far in this series, you’ve seen how Zephyr Archaeotech Emporium—the fictional company at the center of this series—uses Pulumi to manage their online retail store. You read how Zephyr’s initial use of Pulumi changed to use short-lived per-developer stacks. Later, as Zephyr continued to grow, you saw how Zephyr restructured their Pulumi projects and stacks, incorporated Stack References, and used Pulumi Cloud’s role-based access control (RBAC) functionality to control access to their stacks. This post focuses on how Zephyr takes advantage of the Pulumi Automation API to bring an even greater level of orchestration to the stacks that represent their online store.
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.
Starting today, you can restore previously deleted stacks in the Pulumi Cloud console. We’ve had a number of requests from customers to recover stacks, either because the stack was accidentally deleted or the stack was intentionally deleted but, later on, they want to restore and preserve the activity history on the stack and just remove its resources.
Equinix recently released their self-maintained, fully-supported Pulumi provider, available in the Pulumi Registry. In this post, you’ll get an overview of the Equinix resources the provider can manage and we’ll show you how to deploy a Kubernetes cluster and associated workloads on Equinix Metal.
