Pulumi aims to simplify cloud infrastructure management by supporting a unified programming model that allows users to deploy and manage resources across various cloud environments, including AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, GCP, VMWare, and Cisco, using over 150 cloud providers from the Pulumi Registry. The platform has now expanded its capabilities by enabling the use of any Terraform or OpenTofu provider within Pulumi programs, thus broadening access to a wide array of third-party and custom providers without the need for separate repositories or releases. This is facilitated by new features such as Local Packages, which allow Pulumi users to generate SDKs locally for any Terraform or OpenTofu provider, making it easier to integrate these providers into Pulumi projects using simple commands. Pulumi's approach embraces the flexibility of using various pre-existing provider ecosystems, thereby enabling users to benefit from a rich library of infrastructure management tools and services while offering strong typing, code completion, and error reporting within development environments. This initiative aligns with Pulumi's broader strategy of providing comprehensive Infrastructure as Code (IaC) capabilities by incorporating popular tools and standards from the industry without additional effort from users or partners, ultimately enhancing the Pulumi ecosystem's accessibility and functionality.
