Pulumi has introduced a new pricing model with the launch of Pulumi Team Edition, allowing teams to manage cloud infrastructure as code with a pricing structure based on the number of cloud resources under management rather than user count. This edition supports up to 10 users and offers a free tier to help teams start without cost, while Pulumi Enterprise Edition caters to larger organizations with features like advanced security and policy options, supporting unlimited users and teams. The transition to this model aims to empower more developers and infrastructure practitioners by providing broader access to cloud management tools, aligning costs with infrastructure complexity, and fostering collaboration. The updated offerings, which include generous free Pulumi Credits and prepaid options with discounts, are designed to streamline cloud engineering for organizations of all sizes, from startups to Fortune 500 companies. Existing customers are encouraged to transition to the new editions, and a 14-day free trial is available for new users, with additional support for open source projects and early-stage startups. Pulumi remains committed to its open-source community while expanding its production service to meet diverse cloud management needs.
