This is beautiful. Looked at the serverless url shortener example. It abstracts over all the configuration garbage and combines all the AWS infrastructure elements as one unified working body.

I'm worried that I might run into a case where it might provision something and I wouldn't know what it did to my AWS account necessarily.

I'll 10/10 give this a go for my next AWS project. Also, no YAML woo!

(Disclosure: I work at Pulumi.)

The `pulumi update` command first shows you a preview of the exact resources it will create. Once you've deployed, you can view all your resources on the pulumi.com console, so you know exactly what has happened.
