APIs for Infrastructure… on steroids

" summary

Live demo shows Pulumi code that deploys an Azure Function in ~1 minute by creating resource group, storage account, blob (zipped function), SAS URL and Function App; the code is then refactored into a Pulumi component that auto-generates SDKs for TypeScript, Python, .NET and Go, so developers get a 4-line API to deploy. Also shows a one-line CLI to deploy containers to Kubernetes, and fast unit tests that mock cloud APIs (Mocha) to validate infra.
