From AI Prompt to Cloud Infrastructure in 30 Seconds

From AI Prompt to Cloud Infrastructure in 30 Seconds

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!

Introducing the Pulumi Cloud Team Edition Cost Calculator

Pulumi Cloud pricing is straightforward- a charge per resource hour for every resource managed by Pulumi Cloud and a charge for every deployment minute (only applicable if using Pulumi Deployments). However, when prospective customers first look at Pulumi Cloud costs it can be overwhelming to determine what your workload will look like and then do the math.

Remediation Policies: Continuous and Automatic Compliance

Remediation Policies: Continuous and Automatic Compliance

Pulumi’s policy as code engine, CrossGuard, is already very flexible, and can enforce custom or predefined policies across a wide variety of use cases, including security, compliance, cost, and overall best practices. CrossGuard warns or issues errors should a deployment attempt to violate a policy. Last week we announced a new extension to CrossGuard called remediation policies. Remediation policies don’t just check for compliance, they go ahead and actually fix the problems in place. This ensures that every deployment across your entire team conforms, no questions asked, while also not needing to pester end users to remember all of the rules as they write their infrastructure as code, such as tagging resources a specific way. In this post, we will dig deeper into remediation policies and their use cases.
