Monitor and cap external provider costs
Unity Gateway can now track and cap spend on external model providers, such as Amazon Bedrock and Azure AI Foundry, not just Databricks-provided models. If your organization already has capacity commitments directly with a provider, Unity Gateway becomes the single point to track that usage and enforce spend limits across teams and use cases.
Unity Catalog Skills (Beta)
You can now publish, govern, and share agent skills with Unity Catalog. A skill is a first-class Unity Catalog securable ( catalog.schema.skill ) that follows the SKILL.md specification , so you register it once and control who can discover, use, and update it with the same permissions, tags, and audit that protect your tables.
Looker visual modeling canvas for BigQuery enters preview
A drag-and-drop canvas builds and edits LookML models on BigQuery sources: join tables, define dimensions and measures, preview results and publish Explores without writing LookML.

Query your infrastructure with the Pulumi Context API
The Pulumi Context API is now available in public preview. It connects everything Pulumi knows about your infrastructure, the resources your programs manage, the dependencies between them, how stacks consume each other’s outputs, and the resources Discovery finds in your cloud accounts, into a queryable graph. Pulumi Neo uses the Context API out of the box.
Experimental Rust support for Pulumi
Pulumi Labs has released pulumi-rust , an experimental Rust SDK and language plugin for the Pulumi platform. If you’ve been waiting to write your infrastructure in Rust, you can now give it a try. This is an early-stage, experimental project: there are no promises of official support yet, and the API is still taking shape.
Stateful, zero-setup resource operations with pulumi do
You can now use pulumi do to create, read, update, and delete cloud resources directly from the command line , no program, project, or stack required , and pull them into new or existing Pulumi projects when you’re ready.
A notification center for Pulumi Cloud
The Pulumi Cloud console now has a unified inbox for all of your notifications. You’ll find it in the sidebar, just above the name of the active organization, and it notifies you in real time, no reload required: The new notification center currently covers Neo tasks, ESC approvals, and billing notifications, and we’ll be adding more notification types...
Policy violations now appear in pull request comments and checks
When a preview or update runs with a policy pack, the pull request comment and commit check that Pulumi Cloud posts now include a Policy violations section. It shows how many mandatory and advisory violations were found, then lists each one with its policy pack, policy name, the resource it flagged, and the violation message.
Full support for Terraform state, cross-language modules, and HCL
Manage your Terraform state, publish and share Terraform modules across languages, and write programs in HCL as a first-class Pulumi language.
Migrate CloudFormation and ARM with discovered stacks
Pulumi Cloud now discovers your AWS CloudFormation stacks and Azure Resource Manager deployments as discovered stacks . When Pulumi Discovery scans your cloud accounts, every stack and deployment appears with its resources, each mapped to its Pulumi shape and carrying a migration status computed from live state so it never gets stale.
