The Everything Feed - All Packet Pushers Pods - A podcast by Packet Pushers

Categories:

Pulumi is a tool for building cloud-native infrastructure as code using general-purpose programming languages.
Luke Hoban, CTO of Pulumi, joins Scott on the Full Stack Journey podcast to chat about the tool. You can follow him at @lukehoban on Twitter.
They address a variety of topics, including:

* What is Pulumi?
* Why use Pulumi? Why not use existing infrastructure-as-code tools?
* Is Pulumi still declarative if I’m using a general-purpose programming language?
* What about optimizing for reusability versus optimizing for readability?
* Does using Pulumi make getting started with infrastructure-as-code easier or harder?
* How do folks get acquainted with Pulumi?
