GitOps with Pulumi
🙌 My next course is coming soon! I've opened the waitlist for those wanting to go deep in GitHub Actions for DevOps and AI automation in 2025. I'm so thrilled to announce this course. The waitlist allows you to quickly sign up for some content updates, discounts, and more as I finish building the course.

Bret is joined by David Flanagan, aka Rawkode Academy, from Pulumi to show off how Pulumi infrastructure-as-code can improve GitOps pipelines. Our conversation focused on what GitOps and Pulumi are and how they work together to manage your infrastructure and app deploys. Streamed live on YouTube on March 24, 2022.
Unedited live recording of the complete show on YouTube (Ep #164). Includes demos.
