> wanted to "automate everything".

With all due respect, this is preached by pretty much every book you read on cloud administration. I'd argue that if the process is decent enough, it'll work with major cloud providers, because their API's are rich enough to enable this already.

The thing with most automation tools though is, a) they're abysmal for most of the workflows preached (thinking of ansible and im shuddering) and b) to reach the degree of automation described in most literature, you need the API's of $MAJOR_CLOUD_PROVIDER.
