Organizations are under constant pressure to deliver new products and features faster than ever. But speed alone isn’t enough—businesses must also navigate the complex challenges of ensuring security and managing infrastructure costs effectively.

Enter DevSecOps - the strategic integration of security practices into the DevOps workflow. By automating security processes, organizations can achieve improved speed, scalability, and business impact, all while ensuring security remains a priority.

Tivity Health, a leading health and fitness solutions provider, has embraced this DevSecOps approach using Pulumi, a modern infrastructure as code (IaC) platform. During PulumiUP 2024, David Giambruno, Tivity Health’s VP of Engineering and DevOps, shared how, by leveraging Pulumi, he led the transformation that continuously drives remarkable results in speed, cost savings, and security.

Building an EKS cluster requires choosing how your containers will actually run - either on EC2 instances you manage or through AWS Fargate’s pod-by-pod approach. The differences can be pretty dramatic in practice. I’m setting up a demo cluster right now using Pulumi, so let me show you what I mean:

YAML and Kubernetes go together like peanut butter and jelly. While Kubernetes objects can be defined in JSON, YAML has emerged as the de facto standard.

It’s often the first tool developers encounter when diving into Kubernetes, and for good reason - its human-readable format makes it the preferred choice in most tutorials, documentation, and even production deployments.

We’re excited to announce dependency caching for Pulumi Deployments! This new feature is designed to significantly speed up deployment times by reducing dependency installation time by up to 80%, ensuring faster and more efficient workflows for every Pulumi user.

When using Pulumi Deployments, installing dependencies can be a time-consuming part of a deployment. With dependency caching, Pulumi can reuse previously installed dependencies, allowing your deployments to skip redundant installation steps and focus on the task at hand. This optimization is especially helpful for frequent deployments, reducing both time and compute resources.

When should you use Cosmos DB on Azure? It’s a hard question to answer.

Azure Cosmos DB tries to do it all - which makes it both powerful and, honestly, kind of confusing. The marketing doesn’t help either. Yeah, it’s a flexible database, but before you jump in, you need to understand how it actually works under the hood, what it’ll cost you, and what trade-offs you’re making by choosing it.

I’m going to break all that down. Here’s a roadmap:

Only a few things are certain in the lives of developers and DevOps engineers: taxes, yearly performance reviews, and secret sprawl. While the first two are inevitable, the last one is something that can be managed.

As we keep adding new cloud resources and releasing new applications, the number of secrets we need to manage keeps growing: passwords, API keys, certificates, and more. And as if this isn’t enough, we need to manage secrets across different systems and environments with different teams that need to access them; we end up with duplicates.
