I’m super curious about pulumi — I just inherited a mess of terragrunt at a new gig and was plannning to rewrite it anyway, is it mature enough for a reasonably standard aws/eks setup?
As much as I like Pulumi, no one gets fired for choosing Terraform. You're going to be able to find the most help, discussion, and stuff for Terraform. Terraform and it's ecosystem is the safer choice, especially when the CDK is an option.
On the other hand I can say that a bunch of Pulumi's stuff is built on terraform underneath the covers so I'm not sure how far behind they are but it probably isn't by much. In my limited use (for example deploying SES stuff) I found it a pleasure to use and didn't find anything that terraform did that it didn't (again, likely due to pulumi being able to utilize terraform providers under the covers).

Hope you're really sure this is where you want to use your effort tokens -- I'm not sure how much of a mess with it, but these tools are so new, it might be worth seeing if you can de-clutter it without a complete rewrite. Or maybe it's small enough that a complete rewrite is relatively low friction... Either way, there be dragons.
