Summary

Pulumi has introduced the Pulumi IDP (Internal Developer Platform) as an evolution of its cloud platform to automate, secure, and manage cloud infrastructure effectively. This platform is designed to support platform engineering by providing scalable workflows through self-service infrastructure management, addressing tool sprawl and Day 2 operational challenges that arose with the DevOps movement. Pulumi IDP integrates with the entire Pulumi product suite, facilitating flexible workflows that accommodate different user personas, from no-code to full-code solutions. Central to its functionality is the Pulumi Private Registry, which serves as a source of truth for reusable infrastructure components, ensuring discoverability, lifecycle management, and compliance. The introduction of Pulumi Services adds organizational context to infrastructure management, allowing teams to group stacks, resources, and environments logically while integrating metadata for enhanced context and operability. Pulumi IDP aims to empower platform teams to create secure, compliant, and reliable infrastructure workflows, offering a bottom-up framework that promotes the use of standardized components across various programming languages.
