I’ve come across a concept for a unified layer of specifications that encompasses infrastructure definitions that map 1:1 to the actual resources being provisioned by the different providers (such as Kubernetes, public/private clouds, etc). It also includes operational tasks, deployment topology requirements and such. Basically it’s a generated/rendered manifest that captures all the operational intent for a given application from some sort of template. What’s a good choice of terminology to use for that concept? My current favorites are “spec”, “provision” or “manifest”.
