Pulumi Community

about 1, no, calls are made directly from the host where `pulumi up` is run, even if you use Pulumi's service (which is awesome). And you do not have to use Pulumi's service, you can store your state on S3 for example

Hi <@U027GE5907M> - Pier-Luc already helped answer your first question, but just to elaborate a bit more, we don’t store any sensitive data in our service and our service never interacts with your cloud provider, only the cli tool does.

As for ArgoCd, the tools are not mutually exclusive. You can render Pulumi to yaml if you want to use Argo

If you like, I’m happy to set up some time to chat and answer any questions

Thanks for responses guys.

<@U027GE5907M> if you DM your email I'll have an account rep reach out to you, we have a bunch of pricing options at the enterprise tier I'd like to run you through
