Pulumi is a great product overall. It offers a wide range of cool features that make infrastructure-as-code (IaC) development easier and more efficient.
One of the strongest aspects of Pulumi is its support for native programming languages like Python, Node, Jave, Yaml Go, .net. This allows developers to leverage their existing skills and use familiar tools to define and manage infrastructure resources.
What I really appreciate about Pulumi is that you don't have to be a full-time developer to understand and work with it. As someone from a systems engineering background, I found it straightforward to pick up and start using as my preferred IaC platform.
Pulumi's documentation and community resources are also very helpful. They provide clear and concise guidance, making it easier to get started and troubleshoot any issues that may arise.
One notable advantage of Pulumi is its ability to simplify the creation of cross-account and cross-region resources within a single stack. This means you can define and manage resources that span multiple AWS accounts or different regions without the need for complex configuration or external tools like Terraform and Terragrunt.
Overall, I have had a positive experience with Pulumi and it has become my go-to choice for infrastructure provisioning and management. Its support for multiple programming languages, ease of use, and strong feature set make it a powerful tool for anyone involved in IaC development.
Pulumi is my favourite infrastructure as code tool. The ability to write IaC using real programming languages is a game changer and adds so much flexibility to how I deploy infrastructure. Things like the automation API and Pulumi deployments add even more great functionality that makes it my go-to language.
Pulumi makes IaC easy and *fun*! Having the team use the language of their choice to provision and maintain infra is awesome, plus the simplicity of the platform is icing on the cake.
We've used Pulumi as our IaC tool of choice for several years. The programmatic way you can interact with your infrastructure provides a powerful interface for modularizing infrastructure components. This allows our organization to develop standardized shared libraries in Python that other stacks can import and use to deploy secure, repeatable, and scalable infrastructure without needing to re-invent the wheel each time or rely on copying and pasting long code segments between projects. This in turn reduces errors and time spent focused on resolving security vulnerabilities. We're able to fix it once, centrally, and then pulumi up our dependent stacks in order to resolve the security issues.
With excellent customer support, and a veritable Swiss army knife of cloud providers and languages to choose from to write your IaC, Pulumi has our back, and we are confident we'll take them with us, wherever we go.
I've been using Pulumi for a while now, and I can't help but be amazed at how it has transformed my infrastructure deployment and management workflows. Unlike other IaC tools that rely on domain-specific languages, Pulumi leverages real programming constructs. This makes it feel more natural for developers and reduces the learning curve
