None of the properties in the DatabaseInstance construct example posted above are defined as unions of strings - the TypeScript documentation link you just posted is irrelevant.

This is what one of the property types actually look like:

    /**
     * The MySQL or PostgreSQL version to
     * use. Can be `MYSQL_5_6`, `MYSQL_5_7`, `POSTGRES_9_6` or `POSTGRES_11` (beta) for second-generation
     * instances, or `MYSQL_5_5` or `MYSQL_5_6` for first-generation instances.
     * See [Second Generation Capabilities](https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/1st-2nd-gen-differences)
     * for more information.
     */
    readonly databaseVersion?: pulumi.Input<string>;

Why is every single property of type string - to see what to put there I have to reference a comment in code? I shouldn't have to read comments to see what the magic string is for the f1-micro tier, or the hard disk type or the region. CDK has actual Enums for all of these things that work to make life easier. You're not making it any easier to code up a DatabaseInstance - its simply a bucket of keys and values where I'm looking up what those values should be.

I don't think large blocks of comments qualify as strong typing: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-gcp/blob/76df2e85214ad13465...

Here are two simple database definitions:

Database in Pulumi:

  const db = new gcp.sql.DatabaseInstance('app-db', {
    databaseVersion: 'POSTGRES_11',
    region: 'us-central1',
    settings: {
      tier: 'db-f1-micro',
      diskType: 'PD_HDD',
    },
  });

  const db = new rds.DatabaseInstance(this, 'AppDb', {
    engine: rds.DatabaseInstanceEngine.POSTGRES,
    engineVersion: '11.5',
    instanceClass: ec2.InstanceType.of(
      ec2.InstanceClass.STANDARD5,
      ec2.InstanceSize.XLARGE
    ),
    storageType: rds.StorageType.GP2
  })

For AWS users AWS CDK is a far better take on infrastructure as code - strongly typed TypeScript resources and higher level constructs that hide the underlying details of load balancers, IAM, etc. Pulumi was not as useful the last time I tried it - most resources were string key-value pairs with no typing or code completion. You're still referencing documentation to do anything and defining tons of low level resources to accomplish basic tasks. Might as well be writing raw Terraform or CloudFormation configs at that point, as they have more documentation available.

You can simply dockerize your app and deploy it to Heroku: https://medium.com/faun/how-to-dockerize-a-net-core-applicat...

You've only taken care of the surface-level complexity with AWS. Want to do something more like add a header to the response? Well then, create a lambda, deploy it to the edge, and pay per page view. This is something Firebase is much more elegant at - the initial deploy, and then evolution and addition of features geared to static site deployment.

Dart has a sound type system. Why would someone voluntarily deal with TypeScript unless forced to by the browser environment?

The SSD speed is the same across the lineup

Something like this would be way faster than Sequelize: https://github.com/mgutz/mapper

Also, it would be beneficial to see Phalcon PHP - its implemented as a C extension so should theoretically be faster. http://phalconphp.com.
