Pulumi Guides
End-to-end blueprints for real cloud patterns.
Pulumi Guides are task-oriented blueprints: opinionated, variant-specific Pulumi programs that take a common cloud pattern from zero to a working deployment. Each guide here ships with a downloadable blueprint, reusable components, and a documented path to CI/CD.

Build a Cloud Landing Zone
Give every other Pulumi project in your cloud account a consistent, pre-built foundation (shared network, identity, key store, audit logs) so downstream stacks adopt it by name instead of rebuilding it every time.
Deploy a Static Website
Publish a small marketing or docs site on a CDN with custom domain, HTTPS, and sensible caching handled for you, without stitching together buckets and origins by hand.
Load Webhook Data into Snowflake
Land third-party webhook traffic (GitHub, LaunchDarkly, or your own sender) directly in Snowflake for analytics, without writing pipeline glue or running a long-lived server.
Promote Pulumi stacks with CI/CD
Build a promotion pipeline that previews pull requests, deploys dev and staging on merge, and keeps production behind an explicit approval or deployment trigger.
Run Managed Kubernetes
Give every team a production-ready Kubernetes cluster they can deploy workloads to in minutes, with the platform plumbing (ingress, secrets, autoscaling, and workload identity) already wired up so nobody has to stitch it together by hand.
Serverless React + Postgres
Ship a small full-stack web app in one `pulumi up`, with a React UI, a serverless backend, and a managed PostgreSQL database the backend queries. Scale-to-zero compute where the cloud supports it, and no CORS setup in the browser.
