Infrastructure management is all fun and games until you find yourself scrolling through 1000+ resources in your AWS console. Worse, when one rogue product team wants to use Azure and your data team wants to be on GCP, you’re ARM wrestling in Azure and watching your economies of scale tip the wrong direction as you’re copy-pasting CloudFormation templates into yet another git repo. This. Needs. To. Be. A. Platform!

Pulumi stands out in the world of infrastructure-as-code (IaC) for its flexibility and ease of use. This is due to its unique approach of using general purpose programming languages to describe system configuration. It accomplishes this through a small but brilliant implementation detail that bridges the worlds of declarative and standard programming using asynchronous semantics.

Pulumi makes it easy to flexibly deploy your cloud infrastructure using code. Usually deployments encompass a single slack and a single region in your cloud of choice.

Sometimes we want a single stack to span regions for performance, scalability, resilience, or just hard requirements. In these cases, Pulumi can seamlessly orchestrate deployments to, or even across, multiple regions, accounts, or clusters. In this article, we’ll see this in action by provisioning an AWS RDS primary database into one region and a read replica in an entirely different region – all from a single Pulumi program, stack, and pulumi up incantation.
