But that comes _after_ you have chosen VMs over Containers yes?

If you are using VMs, I think NixOs/Guix is a good choice. Reproducible builds, Immutable OS, Immutable binaries and Dead easy rollback.

It still looks somewhat futuristic. Hopefully gets traction.

if you're using nixos, just to do provisioning, I would argue OStree is a better fit.
