As enterprise adoption of the Pulumi Service has grown 350% over the last year, we’ve seen a strong customer demand for tools to manage automated Pulumi use cases such as CI/CD and Automation API at scale. Today we are launching Organization Access Tokens to empower our largest customers to manage automated workloads in a secure and collaborative manner.
The team has been busy releasing new features and improvements in the last month. The latest Pulumi updates include our providers updates, install Pulumi using winget, stack unselect command, GitHub release private plugins, and more. Read on to learn about what’s new in this release!
Since its introduction in 2014, the AWS Lambda service has steadily grown from ‘functions as a service’ to a powerful serverless platform that enables cloud engineers to run code without provisioning or managing underlying infrastructure.
As of 3.23.0, users can disable the default provider with Pulumi. So what does this mean for you? If you’ve been using Pulumi for a bit, you’ll have encountered provider resources, which are how we abstract the global state of a cloud provider. All resources have an associated provider. If no provider is supplied in the user’s code, a default provider is created to serve the resource. Explicit providers, which are defined by the user in code, allow programmatic and dynamic control of how a resource deploys into a cloud.

Last year, we introduced a new Pulumi feature that allows you to import existing infrastructure into your Pulumi program. Not only did it bring the resource into the Pulumi state file, but it could generate the source code for your Pulumi program too. Today, we’re excited to announce that we’ve listened to feedback and delivered a plethora of updates and fixes to streamline the import experience; to make it more useful, more convenient, and more powerful.
In the last 12 months, we have experienced 350% year-over-year growth of our enterprise customers, including Mercedes-Benz, Snowflake, Atlassian and SANS Institute. Given the growth in our enterprise customer base, we are excited to launch today a new Business Critical Edition for the Pulumi Service, a 30 day Self-Hosted Pulumi Service trial, and the option to purchase Pulumi Enterprise and Business Critical through the AWS Marketplace!

Pulumi is frequently used to manage the entire lifecycle of a resource, from creation, to updates, to replacement, to deletion. However, there are some cases where it is important to ensure that a resource’s life can extend beyond the lifetime of the Pulumi program that created it. To support these use cases, Pulumi now supports a new resource option RetainOnDelete which allows a resource to be retained in a cloud provider even after it is deleted from the Pulumi stack it is part of.
Pulumi’s previews are an important part of any workflow where you want to see the changes that will be made to your infrastructure before actually making the changes (with pulumi up). However, today there is no guarantee that the pulumi up operation will do only what was previewed; if the program, or your infrastructure, changes between the preview and the update, the update might make additional changes to bring your infrastructure back in line with what’s defined in your program. We’ve heard from many of you that you need a strong guarantee about exactly which changes an update will make to your infrastructure, especially in critical and production environments.
