It exposes the full breadth of AWS services through strongly-typed Python classes, covering EC2, Lambda, S3, IAM, ECS, CloudFormation, API Gateway, and many others. You define your cloud resources in Python, then use the Pulumi CLI to plan and deploy them to AWS.\n\nThe package includes convenience APIs like `aws.lambda.CallbackFunction` that simplify common patterns\u2014for example, defining a Lambda function directly from a Python function object, or wiring it to S3 bucket events or CloudWatch timers. Configuration is handled through Pulumi's standard stack configuration system, supporting AWS credentials via environment variables, shared credentials files, profiles, or assume-role flows. The package depends on pulumi (the core framework), parver, semver, and typing-extensions.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are already using Pulumi and need to provision AWS resources from Python. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and permissive licensing. Install only if you have the Pulumi CLI set up and an AWS account configured; it is not a standalone AWS SDK."},"id":"pulumi-aws","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pulumi-aws","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pulumi-aws.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pulumi-aws/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-13","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pulumi-aws","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A Pulumi package for creating and managing Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud resources."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":5967263,"position":2001,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"7.42.0"}
