pulumi-aws-native
A native Pulumi package for creating and managing Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources.
What it is and what it does
Pulumi AWS Cloud Control Provider is a Pulumi language binding that lets you define and deploy AWS infrastructure using the AWS Cloud Control API. It works as a native provider within the Pulumi ecosystem, supporting Python alongside C#, Go, and JavaScript/TypeScript. The package wraps the Cloud Control API to give you same-day access to new AWS resources and properties as AWS releases them, without waiting for Pulumi's primary AWS Provider to add support.
You use it by writing Pulumi programs that declare AWS resources as code, then deploy them via the Pulumi CLI. It depends on pulumi (the core framework), parver and semver (for version handling), and typing-extensions (for type hints). The provider is most useful as a complement to the primary AWS Provider—start with the main provider and add Cloud Control resources on an as-needed basis for newly released AWS features.
Use it for:
- Deploy newly released AWS resources or properties before they appear in the primary Pulumi AWS Provider.
- Manage AWS infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code in Python alongside other Pulumi-supported languages.
- Automate AWS resource provisioning and lifecycle management through declarative Pulumi programs.
- Integrate AWS Cloud Control API resources into existing Pulumi stacks and CI/CD pipelines.
- Provision resources across multiple AWS services using a unified Pulumi language and tooling.
Worth the install?
AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Pulumi AWS Cloud Control Provider enables infrastructure-as-code deployment and management of AWS resources supported by the AWS Cloud Control API through Pulumi programs.
Yes. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries a permissive license, and fills a real need for same-day access to new AWS resources. Install it if you are already using Pulumi and need to deploy AWS resources not yet in the primary provider, or if you prefer the Cloud Control API's standardized interface. Start with the primary AWS Provider for most use cases and add this as needed.
Install

pip
pip install pulumi-aws-nativeuv
uv add pulumi-aws-nativepoetry
poetry add pulumi-aws-nativeInstalling pulumi-aws-native
Before you install
Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel distribution. The package is actively maintained with a recent release (11 days old) and depends on well-established libraries: pulumi, parver, semver, and typing-extensions. Repository shows active development with 107 stars.
License in practice
Licensed under Apache-2.0 (permissive), allowing use in commercial and private projects with minimal restrictions—you need only include a copy of the license and state significant changes.
Quickstart
pip install pulumi-aws-native
import pulumi_aws_native as aws_native
# Create an AWS resource via Cloud Control API
resource = aws_native.SomeResourceType('my-resource')
Requires Pulumi CLI installed and configured with AWS credentials; Python 3.9 or later.
Verify before relying
- Whether all AWS resources you need are covered by the Cloud Control API (documentation notes this does not yet include all AWS resources).
- Performance characteristics and rate-limiting behavior when managing large numbers of resources.
- Compatibility details with existing Pulumi AWS Provider workflows and migration paths.
