Kind of off topic, but I would love to have NixOps (https://github.com/NixOS/nixops) as an abstraction layer for every type of cloud service, and not just virtual machines (e.g. queues, object storages, etc).

There is Terraform and Ansible, of course, but Nix seems like it could combine the strengths of both of them.

There are actual plugins for AWS, Hetzner, GCP and Azure (on an old version of NixOps) and it's quite easy to add support for your favorite cloud if there is a decent usable API.
