Pulumi's Universal Infrastructure as Code platform has introduced support for AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) constructs, allowing users to deploy AWS CDK constructs directly from within Pulumi programs, bypassing the need for CloudFormation. This integration offers a more streamlined and efficient deployment process, leveraging Pulumi's features like Policy as Code and audit logs, while enabling users to benefit from AWS CDK's high-level libraries and constructs. Now, Pulumi users can combine resources from both platforms in a single project, facilitating interoperability across more than 80 cloud and SaaS providers supported by Pulumi. The AWS CDK on Pulumi project, currently in public preview, is focused on enhancing developer productivity by providing a seamless experience, merging the strengths of AWS CDK's well-architected infrastructure patterns with Pulumi's broad ecosystem and direct AWS integration. This initiative is expected to foster closer collaboration between the AWS CDK and Pulumi communities, expanding the possibilities for cloud engineering projects.
