Pulumi offers a streamlined approach to setting up the infrastructure for serving static websites on AWS by integrating several AWS services, including Amazon S3 for content storage, Amazon CloudFront as a content distribution network, Amazon Route53 for DNS management, and Amazon Certificate Manager for HTTPS support. By utilizing Pulumi's code-centric model, users can efficiently configure and maintain these cloud resources, eliminating the complexities involved in integrating multiple products. This setup, which Pulumi itself employs for its websites, allows for global content delivery and HTTPS support without manual AWS console intervention. Pulumi's flexibility also enables easy expansion to accommodate additional functionalities, such as authentication or dynamic content delivery, and facilitates the creation of testing or staging environments by running the same program in different stacks. The example provided demonstrates how around 200 lines of code can seamlessly integrate these AWS products to host a static website, highlighting Pulumi's capacity to manage infrastructure while allowing users to retain control and customize as needed.
