Is it possible to use pulumi Service with self managed backend ?

yes, you can use AWS S3, or Azure Blob Storage, or Google Cloud Storage: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/state/

@mammoth-electrician-64525 I initially created a pulumi personal account, all the stack state was saved by pulumi here. Now I want to use s3 to save state, so I used pulumi login s3://… I want to be able to still use the pulumi UI that pulumi service provided when I was logging in to pulumi personal account. Is this possible ?

Pulumi UI is proprietary software; it is how Pulumi company maintains and supports all other open source solutions. If you or your company want to see, Pulumi growing and giving you incredible new features is a reasonable way to support the project by acquiring a business license.

@mammoth-electrician-64525 We are planning on getting the business license. Is there any doc I can see on how pulumi encrypts states & secrets when using the pulumi service backend ? Also how will the encryption work when self hosting pulumi ?

you can check both of these docs: • Self-Hosted Pulumi Service(UI): https://www.pulumi.com/docs/guides/self-hosted/ • Secrets in general: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/secrets/#sts=Configuring%20Secrets%20Encryption

Information about self-hosted is available at https://www.pulumi.com/docs/guides/self-hosted/ If you have further queries around it and the business critical license contact the sales team, they'll be happy to help with any questions

@cold-orange-37453 i’m in pulumi’s sales org, if you need any more information about our self hosted vs saas product, please feel free to dm me
