I learned how to code at university, so I've been at it since 2014. I've dabbled in open source contributions but would like to get into it more. Other than 1's and 0's, I love to travel.
Have you used the AWS CDK? I would be curious to know if you prefer Pulumi over a tool built by a cloud provider themselves. Of course, that question only really applies if the target cloud is AWS!
CDK is too things:
1) an SDK (in several programming languages) to generate CloudFormation template files (CFTF);
2) a controller of cloudformation
Pulumi is similar for #1 (just different API), but very different for #2. CF has a purist implementation of state-based infrastructure, ie CF will not let your stack be halfway betwen your original state and your desired state. If this sounds good in theory, it's a pain in practice, I've seen updates via CF fail both the rollout and the rollback! Then what do you do? You're screwed. With terraform, the description of your infrastructure is the state; it will let you get partway there, but always knows where you are on that path.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
