Los Angeles Pulumi User Group

Modern workloads require frequent container builds and deployments, but traditional build processes can be slow and resource-intensive, creating bottlenecks in your delivery pipeline.

Docker Build Cloud offers distributed, cached builds that can dramatically reduce build times, while Pulumi provides the orchestration layer to automate your entire deployment workflow using familiar programming languages.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to integrate Docker Build Cloud with Pulumi to create a streamlined container build and deployment pipeline. We’ll demonstrate how to leverage Docker Build Cloud’s distributed architecture and layer caching to accelerate builds, while using Pulumi to automate the end-to-end process from foundational infrastructure to container build to production deployment.
Speakers:

• Josh Kodroff, Principal Solutions Architect, Pulumi
• Mike Coleman, Staff Solutions Architect, Docker

Join us to learn:

• How to configure Docker Build Cloud and integrate it with your existing container build pipeline.
• Techniques for optimizing container builds with intelligent caching and distributed processing.
• Best practices for automating container deployments using Pulumi's infrastructure as code.

Platform engineers face significant challenges in managing diverse and sprawling cloud infrastructure. This workshop introduces Pulumi Insights, a powerful solution transforming how organizations understand, control, and optimize their cloud estate across multiple deployment tools and platforms.
Whether you manage a small development environment or a large multi-cloud estate, this workshop will equip you with practical strategies and tools to improve the clarity, control, and efficiency of your cloud infrastructure management.
Speakers:

• Mitch Gerdisch, Senior Solutions Architect
• Josh Kodroff, Principal Solutions Architect

Join us to learn:

• How to discover and manage legacy cloud resources deployed outside of Pulumi.
• How to identify and remediate misconfigured resources with policy as code
• How to implement a unified approach to cloud resource management that transcends traditional tool-specific limitations

Managing cloud infrastructure at scale requires robust automation and collaboration tools that seamlessly integrate with your existing development workflows.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to leverage the enhanced GitLab integration to automate infrastructure deployments, implement effective change management, and establish standardized infrastructure patterns across your organization.
