@markstos heh, yeah 😂 #Pulumi doesn't do that. I do use it exclusively for creating cloud resources, or occasionally things of a similar nature like Docker containers running on a host which had the Docker runtime installed and configured separately.

In order to get things installed on the servers after I provision them, I've historically mostly used shell scripts, although for new stuff I'm transitioning to cloud-init. Or in some cases I might separately (manually) prepare an image containing everything I want to wind up on the new server and use that.

For management of existing infrastructure I've been using #Pyinfra, which I like, although it doesn't have the wealth of predefined tasks/roles/playbooks that Ansible does. Someday I would like to integrate Pyinfra into my Pulumi usage.
