[Pulumi founder here] Sorry to hear you don't particularly like Pulumi---any/all feedback welcome. If nothing else, we do listen and we do try to get better. -Joe

Note that you can now use TF providers "on the fly" from Pulumi: https://www.pulumi.com/blog/any-terraform-provider . No provider bridging/conversion necessary. I just tried and it…

[Joe, Pulumi Founder here.] Said well (and thank you for being a customer and valuable member of our community!) The analogy I draw sometimes is that our open source infrastructure…

Pulumi Founder/CEO here. The blog post is disingenuous. We tried many times to contribute upstream fixes to Terraform providers, but HashiCorp would never accept them. So we've had…

As a concrete example of what this enables, the Pulumi Automation API lets you embed IaC straight into a bigger program. Folks have used this to create infrastructure-oriented SaaS…

[caveat, Pulumi co-founder here] Pulumi is fully functional in open source form. The analogy I like to draw is Git and GitHub. You can use Git fully independent of GitHub, or you c…

[caveat, Pulumi co-founder here] You are right that it's not easy. Thankfully the cloud providers themselves have moved in the direction of auto-generation for their own SDKs, docu…

Excellent topic. [caveat, Pulumi co-founder here] Indeed what you say is true of many other "multi-language" platforms. I was an early engineer on .NET at Microsoft, and although i…

The defining characteristic about Pulumi compared to other tools is that it's not a transpiler, in fact. It's a multi-language runtime written in Go that can host many language plu…

> is it possible to do that without having to use the CLI? Are you doing any sort of state locking here? Yeah it's just a file if you prefer to edit it. By default, Pulumi uses our…

You're right, the Pulumi example is a project, not a reusable module. There are a few approaches to making it modular: 1) The project does support config. So if you want to change …

[Disclaimer: also member of the Pulumi team.] We've worked with a lot of end users to migrate from Terraform, and we honestly do see a lot of copy-and-paste. I agree that it's not …

Our free tier is still there and here to stay. What did we do to make you think it's been sunsetted? :-(

We have ksonnet expats on the team (we're all in cloud city -- Seattle), and I've been keeping an eye on that project myself, since I think it got a lot of things right and frankly…

Definitely. I was a part of C# in the early days, so little else would make me happier than awesome class .NET support. This'll be great for Azure folks -- who knows, PowerShell to…

My belief is that we've been slowly building up to using general purpose languages, one small step at a time, throughout the infrastructure as code, DevOps, and SRE journeys this p…

> Pulumi doesn't seem to be designed to support deployment onto bare metal. In principle, there is no reason we couldn't support bare metal, provided we have an orchestrator. Pulum…

The strength of this system is that map is type checked to be provably side-effect free. The mapping function is free to internally allocate and mutate objects to get its job done,…
