Pulumi is more than a way to build, deploy, and manage your infrastructure and cloud applications. Pulumi is also a strong and vibrant community. We are very excited to announce and showcase our new program of community champions, the Puluminaries!

The Puluminaries program was created to recognize members of the Pulumi community who are experts and leaders in the field of programming and infrastructure, but also who give back to the community to make it grow! They help others get started, give feedback to make Pulumi's roadmap even better, and educate people through content or public speaking. The program is open to all members of the community, and we welcome anyone to join the program.
|
|
|
|
While the Puluminaries themselves have been active in the community for quite some time, we officially launched the program at [PulumiUP](https://pulumi.com/pulumi-up) in 2022, and it is our pleasure to introduce the first cohort of members to the program!
