How Elkjøp Nordic enables self-service infrastructure for developers

How Elkjøp Nordic enables self-service infrastructure for developers

At PulumiUP 2022, Tomas Jansson, software architect at Elkjøp Nordic, gave a presentation on how to enable developers to self-service infrastructure by using Pulumi’s Automation API. Elkjøp Nordic is the leading consumer electronics retailer in the Nordics. The company sells consumer electronics, mobile phones, computers, white goods, domestic appliances, and services linked to these products both directly to consumers and to businesses. It is an omnichannel retailer and serves customers both online and through more than 400 stores.

Test-Driven Infrastructure Development with Pulumi and Jest

Test-Driven Infrastructure Development with Pulumi and Jest

When I was a kid growing up in Southern California, there was a phone number you could call to find out what time it was. It was a local number, 853-1212 (easy to remember as the arrangement of the numbers on the keypad made a capital T), and I used it all the time, to set my watch, adjust the alarm clock, fix the display on the VCR. I don’t recall the last time I used it, probably sometime in the mid ’90s, but I do remember clearly the sound of the voice at the other end of the line.

Fullstack Pulumi: Deploying the MERN Stack on DigitalOcean

Fullstack Pulumi: Deploying the MERN Stack on DigitalOcean

As a developer, I get lots of ideas for web apps—little things, mostly: nifty ways to keep track of my kids’ allowances, habit trackers, shopping lists. Most of them, however, never see the light of day, and not just because I’m lazy; I also tend to get hung up trying to decide what to use for the technology stack.

Create Amazon EKS clusters in your favorite language

Create Amazon EKS clusters in your favorite language

Pulumi’s infrastructure as code tooling combines the programming languages and tools you already know with the full power of cloud infrastructure. But until now, some Pulumi components for cloud infrastructure, like our popular EKS package for Amazon’s Elastic Kubernetes Service, were only available in a subset of the languages supported by Pulumi.

Now, you can use the EKS package–previously only available for TypeScript–in all four Pulumi languages: TypeScript, Python, .NET, and Go. Regardless of the language you choose, you can manage EKS clusters with Pulumi, starting with the v0.22.0 release. Check out our Modern Infrastructure Wednesday video to see it in action:

Switching the application stack from PERN to MERN

Switching the application stack from PERN to MERN

This post is outdated and contains references to a pre-release version of Pulumi Crosswalk (@pulumi/awsx). For updated AWSx documentation and examples, see the AWS Guides.

In this blog post, we return to the PERN application we previously migrated to Kubernetes and replace the PostgreSQL database with MongoDB. Although it might seem like a difficult task initially, the straightforward design of Pulumi and Kubernetes allows us to easily transition the application form a PERN stack to a MERN one.

Migrating a cloud application to Kubernetes

Migrating a cloud application to Kubernetes

This post is outdated and contains references to a pre-release version of Pulumi Crosswalk (@pulumi/awsx). For updated AWSx documentation and examples, see the AWS Guides.

In this blog post, we will explore and demonstrate the advantages of Kubernetes by converting and deploying our PERN application to Amazon EKS. With the help of Pulumi, the process becomes greatly simplified and allows us to focus more on the big picture of designing our cloud architecture.

Deploying a PERN stack application to AWS

Deploying a PERN stack application to AWS

Some of the code in this post is out of date. See the AWS guides for an updated overview and examples.

In this blog post, we will explore PERN stack applications and deploy one to AWS. PERN is an acronym for PostgreSQL, Express, React, and Node. A PERN stack application is a project that uses PostgreSQL, Express as an application framework, React as a user interface framework, and runs on Node. We will also use Pulumi Crosswalk to reduce the amount of code and provide a quick and straightforward path for deploying the application.
