Pulumi AI harnesses a form of generative AI, known as large language models, to help you discover, learn, and use new cloud infrastructure APIs with ease. Think of Pulumi AI as a sophisticated compass, guiding you through the ever-changing landscape of cloud infrastructure and pointing you in the direction of the most suitable solutions for your unique requirements. In this blog post, we’ll explore our recent enhancements to Pulumi AI, focusing on how we’ve integrated Pulumi Package schema data to generate more accurate and relevant Pulumi programs.

Ah, GitHub. The home of all developers. The place where we share code. The world’s most awkward social media site. The secret LinkedIn for techies. The tool we use for company org structure, work planning, code ownership, and permissions…

Wait.

That’s quite a lot.

GitHub is good at many things, but a full-on organization management tool it is not.

Have you ever needed your manager to manually enable admin permission on a repo for you? Or have you needed to page the CEO to add you to a team, because your manager was out that day? Have you ever wondered who is on what team? Or which team owns a repo? What if you change teams, or a team changes names? A reorg happens, and the “platform-integrations” team is no more, but we still need to call it that on GitHub because it is the team with all the repository accesses?

When I joined Pulumi in 2021, all of the above happened to me within my first few weeks.

We at Pulumi wanted to reduce this kind of management friction, and we decided to solve it the Pulumi way: with declarative infrastructure using the Pulumi GitHub provider.

It’s now possible to provide resource methods from Pulumi Packages. Resource methods are similar to functions, but instead of being exposed as top-level functions in a module, methods are exposed as methods on a resource class. This allows for a more object-oriented approach to exposing functionality—operations performed by a resource (that potentially use the resource’s state) can now be exposed as methods on the resource. Resource methods can be implemented once, in your language of choice, and made available to users in all Pulumi languages.

Today we’re excited to announce the availability of Pulumi 3.0, the next major version of the Pulumi open source project, and the foundation for Pulumi’s Cloud Engineering Platform.

Pulumi offers the most complete infrastructure as code platform for building, deploying and managing modern cloud infrastructure and applications. Pulumi enables cloud engineers to use familiar languages to describe their cloud infrastructure - bringing core software engineering tools and practices to bear on managing and getting the maximum value from their cloud platforms of choice - across dozens of cloud and SaaS providers.

Pulumi 3.0 includes dozens of significant new features and hundreds of improvements that build on this foundation. This release includes more than 200 contributions from over 150 members of the Pulumi community, and builds on feedback from working with thousands of Pulumi users and customers over the last year.

Pulumi Packages are the core technology that enables cloud infrastructure resource provisioning to be defined once, in your language of choice, and made available to users in all Pulumi languages. If you’ve used a Pulumi cloud provider, including one of our new Pulumi native providers, you’ve used a Pulumi Package. But until today, Pulumi Packages only worked with Pulumi Resources: direct, low-level representations of individual cloud services like object storage. Many of us, however, enjoy creating Pulumi Components, which combine low-level resources into higher-level, more opinionated building blocks like the production-grade Kubernetes cluster component in Pulumi EKS.

Hello! A few weeks back I wrote a post on serving static websites on AWS with Pulumi detailing how to host a static website on AWS. Pulumi allowed me to wire four different AWS products together in only 200 lines of code. It would be a shame, however if I needed to copy and paste that code every time I wanted to to stand up a new website. Instead, we can package up, share, and reuse our code just like any other Node.js library. It just so happens that this one can be used to create cloud infrastructure.
