03/29/2021, 7:54 PMI've created a bunch of Azure infra, and so far I've been managing everything within that project/stack. I'm using multiple k8s clusters now and Pulumi's handling of CRDs is completely screwing things up trying to install identical things (like our API gateway helm chart) into multiple clusters, so I was going to start breaking the clusters out into their own stacks within this project

It is possible to add conditional infrastructure into your plan based on the

You can centralize some of the resources in a
