Scan AWS GovCloud and more partitions with Pulumi Insights

calendar_today April 14, 2026 person Alejandro Cotroneo domain pulumi

Pulumi Insights account scanning now supports every AWS partition. If your workloads run in GovCloud, China, the European Sovereign Cloud, or one of the ISO intelligence-community clouds, you can get the same resource discovery, cross-account search, and AI-assisted insights that commercial accounts already have.

Supported partitions

  1. AWS Standard (Commercial)
  2. AWS GovCloud (US)
  3. AWS ISO (US)
  4. AWS ISOB (US)
  5. AWS ISOF (US)
  6. AWS ISOE (Europe)
  7. AWS European Sovereign Cloud
  8. AWS China

You can also exclude specific regions from discovery — useful when regions are disabled by SCPs or fall outside an audit’s scope.

Choosing an AWS partition when creating an Insights account

Set it up

In the Pulumi Cloud console:

  1. Go to Accounts → Create account.
  2. Select AWS as the provider.
  3. Under Add your configuration, pick the target partition.
  4. Supply credentials via a Pulumi ESC environment. The OIDC trust policy uses the partition-appropriate ARN prefix (arn:aws-us-gov:, arn:aws-cn:, etc.).

For IAM and ESC setup, see the Insights accounts docs. Log in to Pulumi Cloud to get started.
