A recent press release reports, “Pulumi Corporation today announced the availability of its Cloud Native SDK for Kubernetes enabling a code-based approach to creating, deploying and managing applications across clouds including Microsoft AKS, Amazon EKS, and Google GKE, in addition to on-premises and hybrid environments. Pulumi also announced it has joined the Cloud Native Computing Foundation to accelerate development and delivery of its cloud native programming tools and framework. The Pulumi SDK provides full access to Kubernetes APIs and enables execution of all Kubernetes operations through ‘configuration as code,’ the use of real programming languages for configuration of cloud native resources. This provides clear productivity benefits by enabling code reuse and abstraction, in addition to easing previously difficult operations such as complex multi-stage cloud application deployments, or combining Kubernetes deployments with other cloud resources such as datastores. Pulumi also supports existing Helm and YAML-based configuration of Kubernetes.”
The release goes on, “Pulumi stacks can be coded using a variety of common languages including JavaScript, TypeScript, Python and Go and work consistently across all Kubernetes, serverless, data and infrastructure services from cloud platforms, eliminating the need for developers and DevOps teams to support multiple DSLs and configuration dialects. ‘Kubernetes provides a common container runtime across all public and private clouds, paving the way for a true cloud native development platform. Since launch, customers have asked us to bring the same Pulumi programming experience to Kubernetes apps, and we are happy to announce that Pulumi now builds atop this foundation to radically simplify defining, deploying and managing modern cloud native architectures,’ said Joe Duffy, CEO, Pulumi. ‘Our collaboration with the CNCF will further accelerate cloud adoption and migration by making it easier than ever for users and teams to go cloud native’.”
