Pulumi has secured $37.5 million in Series B funding led by NEA, with participation from existing investors, to further its mission of advancing Cloud Engineering as a standard practice within software development. Pulumi's approach leverages existing programming languages rather than introducing new ones, enabling developers and infrastructure teams to collaborate effectively using familiar tools and languages. The company supports over 50 infrastructure providers, including major cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, and integrates with numerous CI/CD systems to simplify cloud operations. Pulumi's vision is to democratize cloud infrastructure access, fostering innovation through features like its Automation API, which offers new possibilities beyond traditional infrastructure as code methods. This funding will support Pulumi's continued development of user-friendly libraries, workshops, and educational materials, ultimately aiming to make cloud capabilities as accessible as standard operating systems. The company views its success as intertwined with its customers' success, emphasizing collaboration and community growth as it seeks to transform modern businesses through cloud technology.
