Pulumi is an open-source infrastructure-as-code platform that lets you define, deploy, and manage cloud infrastructure using general-purpose programming languages like TypeScript, Python, Go, .NET, Java, and HCL instead of YAML. It provisions resources across AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, and 300+ providers, with optional Pulumi Cloud services for state management, deployments, secrets, and AI-assisted infrastructure workflows.

Use cases

  • provision aws vpc and ec2 instances with typescript
  • manage kubernetes infrastructure as code in python
  • migrate from terraform to a programming-language-based iac tool
  • manage cloud infrastructure secrets and configuration centrally
  • automate multi-cloud deployments from ci/cd
  • run terraform state and modules with a managed backend
  • let ai agents safely provision cloud infrastructure

When to choose

  • you prefer real programming languages (loops, functions, packages) over YAML/HCL for infrastructure
  • you need multi-cloud support across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes with 300+ providers
  • you want to embed infrastructure automation in applications via Automation API
  • you want optional hosted state, secrets, drift detection, and policy enforcement

When to avoid

  • your team is deeply invested in pure Terraform/HCL workflows and tooling
  • you only need simple single-cloud provisioning and prefer declarative YAML tools like CloudFormation
  • you require fully offline operation with no hosted service, since advanced features pair with Pulumi Cloud
