Note: this is my first experiment: first I write in Hugo/markdown, and then I port to Medium! Code 🇮🇹 site 🇩🇪 site 🇫🇷 site Geminocks https://ricc.rocks/ is an underlooked gem of precious content, and I’m not biased at all: it’s my personal blog. 🤣 Inside you can find my family pics, my sport and hobbies, alongside my Google Cloud articles. Why? I just fell in love

The Original article here: https://medium.com/google-cloud/setting-cloudbuild-with-pulumi-in-python-330e8b54b2cf watch video A couple of weeks ago, I fell in love with Pulumi. it has everything I wanted from Terraform: easy to set up, easy config management, a nice UI for free, and most importantly… language Support! Pulumi is the best invention after Buffalo Pizza and has only a problem.. no Ruby support :/ Anyway, I’m so in love with ⬣ GCP (which happens to pay my salary, I got to admit), Cloud Build, Cloud Deploy, and in general CI/CD pipelines on Google Cloud that I wanted to give it a try.
