I don’t see a direct comparison, but this is close: <https://pulumi.io/reference/vs/cloud_templates.html>

CDK generates CloudFormation templates.

Didn't know about CDK. Looks interesting. Another difference would be that AWS CDK is only going to work with AWS - no other cloud providers.

Good point! I really like that about Pulumi, especially the cloud module

I only just stumbled across CDK - not sure why AWS is keeping it such low key :smile:

Likely because it's in developer preview.

AWS CDK has definitely taken some inspiration from Pulumi.  As noted above, it's AWS-only and focused on generating CloudFormation templates, which limits some of the flexibility.  But like Puulmi it embraces using general-purpose programming languages to target AWS - something we obviously think is a really good idea!
