The gold standard would be: I just click "add new server", and you start off with some basic, general compute server. The server then itself figures out the optimal network, EC2, Storage, ... and all the other parameters by itself (just by knowing what general use case you're aiming for [see above])

That'd be amazing. However servers don't see all use cases, especially ones that will break it, until it gets broken. This is why anomaly detection also only goes so far.

Worse, you're changing the equation constantly when you work on your features.

Finally when these things do happen, the server will protect itself in the interim. When it does that, things will be broken.
