Pulumi has embraced the Go programming language for its open-source pulumi/pulumi engine and SaaS backend, recognizing Go as the "language of the cloud" due to its widespread adoption in cloud-native infrastructure projects like Docker and Kubernetes. Pulumi 2.0 has introduced Go as a supported language for infrastructure as code, allowing developers to automate cloud resource management using familiar programming tools and techniques, such as declaring desired infrastructure states and leveraging modern cloud patterns like containers and serverless. This approach reduces manual configuration, enhances security and compliance through a policy engine, and supports the reuse of existing Go packages. Pulumi's asynchronous programming model, with its promise-like Inputs and Outputs, facilitates dependency management and parallelizes resource provisioning. Although Pulumi for Go is currently in "preview" status, it supports essential features of the Pulumi programming model, and the team is actively seeking user feedback to improve the Go experience. Additionally, Pulumi plans to enhance Kubernetes support and transition from Dep to Go Modules.
