SHOW NOTES:

Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. It\\u2019s been a while since Pulumi was last on the show (2019), so give us an update on how things are growing. \\xa0

Topic 2 - There\\u2019s been a lot of change in the IaC market over the last few years - Ansible/IBM, Hashicorp/IPO, Chef/Puppet went to Private Equity, VMware bought Salt - Why do you think we\\u2019ve seen so much change in the market in such a short period of time?

Topic 3 - With more companies using the public cloud, and multiple clouds, what does Infrastructure-as-Code look like these days? Are there a new set of challenges to be solved?

Topic 4 - Pulumi has a development model that sort of straddles between IaC and applications. How does it get used in actual customer environments? Has it surprised you how it\\u2019s used by customers?\\xa0

Topic 5 - What are some of the new ways in which Pulumi can take advantage of new cloud capabilities, or new trends you\\u2019re seeing from your customers?\\xa0

Topic 6 - If someone was using a different IaC tool before, are there easy ways to migrate to Pulumi, or is there a steep learning curve?\\xa0
