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!

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.

Today we are making available a simple tool for estimating your cost on the Team Edition of Pulumi Cloud to get prospective customers to the information as quickly as possible.

We are excited to announce that all users of Pulumi Cloud can now secure their account with multi-factor authentication (MFA). By requiring an additional verification step during the login process, MFA shields against unauthorized access, reducing the risk of breaches. This feature aligns with our commitment to providing robust security measures for our users. As an organization administrator, you can further protect your organization by having your members enable MFA.

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.

Backstage is an open source framework for building developer portals, created at Spotify and donated to the CNCF. It allows engineers to create their own development portal internally. Backstage makes it easy for teams to create a unified portal for their infrastructure tooling, software templates, services, documentation and plugins for external tools.

Today, we are excited to bring Pulumi Insights into the pulumi CLI with the new pulumi org search and pulumi ai commands.

Getting your Pulumi notifications into Microsoft Teams is now easier than ever. Organizations using Pulumi Cloud have previously been setting up Microsoft Teams notifications for their stacks using Pulumi Cloud Webhooks. Webhooks can attach to a Pulumi organization or a Pulumi stack. Starting today, customers can set up a Microsoft Teams integration, for organization or stack notifications, with fewer steps and without needing to host the infrastructure themselves.
