So I’m a Platform Engineer who is currently working mostly on Dockerfiles, Ansible Playbooks and Kubernetes YAMLs (FUCK HELM AND YAML TEMPLATING).

Wanted to know if it’s worth it to invest in learning Pulumi, and advocating for its use in our company? As far as I’ve found out we can unify all of our IaC codes by using Pulumi and get rid of multiple tooling/languages that we currently use + writing tests for our IaC code hopefully. which we do not as of now.

What is Lemmy’s opinion about Pulumi? Is it a shiny new thing that I’m getting hopelessly hyped about because of our current problems, or is it a legit thing that delivers substantial improvements to our flow?
