Organizations are under constant pressure to deliver new products and features faster than ever. But speed alone isn’t enough—businesses must also navigate the complex challenges of ensuring security and managing infrastructure costs effectively.

Enter DevSecOps - the strategic integration of security practices into the DevOps workflow. By automating security processes, organizations can achieve improved speed, scalability, and business impact, all while ensuring security remains a priority.

Tivity Health, a leading health and fitness solutions provider, has embraced this DevSecOps approach using Pulumi, a modern infrastructure as code (IaC) platform. During PulumiUP 2024, David Giambruno, Tivity Health’s VP of Engineering and DevOps, shared how, by leveraging Pulumi, he led the transformation that continuously drives remarkable results in speed, cost savings, and security.

Building an EKS cluster requires choosing how your containers will actually run - either on EC2 instances you manage or through AWS Fargate’s pod-by-pod approach. The differences can be pretty dramatic in practice. I’m setting up a demo cluster right now using Pulumi, so let me show you what I mean.

1. Bin Packing
2. Pros and Cons
3. Workload Example: Static Analysis
4. Example: Go Services for E-commerce
5. Fargate vs EC2 Pricing
6. Misconceptions About Fargate
7. Managing Container Orchestration with Pulumi
8. Why Not Both

Here is my Fargate cluster:

YAML and Kubernetes go together like peanut butter and jelly. While Kubernetes objects can be defined in JSON, YAML has emerged as the de facto standard.

It’s often the first tool developers encounter when diving into Kubernetes, and for good reason - its human-readable format makes it the preferred choice in most tutorials, documentation, and even production deployments.

We’re excited to announce dependency caching for Pulumi Deployments! This new feature is designed to significantly speed up deployment times by reducing dependency installation time by up to 80%, ensuring faster and more efficient workflows for every Pulumi user.

When using Pulumi Deployments, installing dependencies can be a time-consuming part of a deployment. With dependency caching, Pulumi can reuse previously installed dependencies, allowing your deployments to skip redundant installation steps and focus on the task at hand. This optimization is especially helpful for frequent deployments, reducing both time and compute resources.
