Summary

Pulumi Insights has expanded its account scanning capabilities to support all AWS partitions, including GovCloud, China, the European Sovereign Cloud, and various ISO intelligence-community clouds, providing these regions with the same resource discovery, cross-account search, and AI-assisted insights available to commercial accounts. Users can exclude specific regions from discovery, which is beneficial when certain regions are disabled by Service Control Policies (SCPs) or are outside an audit's scope. The discovery process is confined within each partition, with credential exchanges and API calls targeting the partition's regional endpoints to ensure that discovery traffic remains within the boundary. To set up, users must create an account in the Pulumi Cloud console, select AWS as the provider, choose the target partition, and provide credentials via a Pulumi ESC environment, with the OIDC trust policy adapting to the partition-specific ARN prefix.
