Very true. Although TOSCA is making some progress in that direction. They
currently support OpenStack, AWS, VMWare, Kubernetes and they also have a
"manual provider" building on Fabric. They addressed a lot of the
complexity issues in their "Simple YAML Profile" and Cloudify is creating a
reference implementation that is getting some traction (
http://ariatosca.org/). The Linux Foundation is also interested in this,
basing their SDN and NFV project on it: https://www.open-o.org/

Your thoughts?
