I'm using the Automation API for a SaaS. It comes in very handy and is the only solution on the market that streamlines multi-cloud environments in programming languages and manages state simultaneously.
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.
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.
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.
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
