In this fourth installment of Architecture as Code series, we’ll take a look at serverless, an architectural pattern that has quickly gained popularity among cloud practitioners. There are two reasons why serverless usage has proliferated: a cost-saving pay as you go model and elasticity that goes from zero to as many as needed to complete the task without managing servers.
This blog post announces Pulumi 2.0, which has been superseded by newer versions. For information about the latest Pulumi release, please refer to the current documentation and recent release notes.
Today we are excited to announce Pulumi 2.0, the next major stage in our journey as an open source project, company, and community. This release expands on our original vision of using your favorite languages and tools to do all things infrastructure as code, now with new cloud engineering superpowers that will help you and your team adopt modern cloud architectures.
We’re excited that Go is now a first-class language in Pulumi and that you can build your infrastructure with Go on AWS, Azure, GCP, and many other clouds. Users often ask, “Can I use Pulumi to manage Kubernetes infrastructure in Go today?” With the release of Pulumi 2.0., the answer is “Yes!”
Due to the nature of the product we build, the Pulumi team needs to have access to several cloud providers to develop and test the product. An increasing number of cloud providers comes with an associated ever-increasing cost.
This article is the third in a series about Architecture as Code. The first article provided an overview of virtual machines, microservices, serverless, and Kubernetes. The second one went in-depth on deploying virtual machines as reusable components. In this third installment, we’ll look at microservices and how to implement them as reusable components with Pulumi.
AWS publishes best practices for how to tag your resources for cost tracking, automation, and organization. But how do you enforce that you’re doing it correctly across all of your projects? And is it really necessary to manually track down all those places where you missed a tag and manually patch things up? In this article, we’ll see how to use Policy as Code to enforce your team’s tagging strategies in addition to some powerful Infrastructure as Code techniques to automate applying your tags in a consistent way across all of your projects and resources.
Documentation in any product is super important, and an area where folks have shared a lot of feedback! We’ve heard you, and this week we took a major step in rolling out a brand new approach to resource documentation. We hope you like it as much as we do.
👋I’m Tasia, a Computer Science student at the University of Washington and Pulumi’s very first intern. Read on to learn about some of my thoughts and experiences from these past few months!
I’ve interned at a few different companies before, but for my last internship, there were several things I was looking for:
A start-up. All the companies I worked at previously had at least a couple thousand people, and I wanted to see first-hand the difference in both engineering and culture between larger, more established companies and smaller, newer ones.
In a previous article, we presented an overview of four infrastructure patterns for deploying modern applications. The article reviewed virtual machines, serverless, Kubernetes, and microservices. In this post, we’ll examine virtual machines in-depth.
This article is the second part of a series on best practices for securely managing AWS credentials on CI/CD. In this article, we go in-depth on providing AWS credentials securely to a 3rd party and introduce a Pulumi program to automate rotating access keys.
