I'm still relatively new to NixOS, having switched all my personal systems over to it this spring/summer. I don't do cloud dev atm, so haven't explored that use case yet. But I believe NixOPs is the canonical way to do what you're describing in production/at scale: https://github.com/NixOS/nixops https://github.com/NixOS/nixops https://nixos.org/nixops/manual/ https://nixos.org/nixops/manual/ (more below) If you want a more experienced answer, I suggest asking on the NixOS forum or subreddit, people are quick to answer in both places. https://discourse.nixos.org/ https://discourse.nixos.org/ https://www.reddit.com/r/NixOS/ https://www.reddit.com/r/NixOS/ ---- More useful NixOPs guides https://www.thedroneely.com/posts/nixops-towards-the-final-frontier/ https://www.thedroneely.com/posts/nixops-towards-the-final-f... https://ops.functionalalgebra.com/nixops-by-example/ https://ops.functionalalgebra.com/nixops-by-example/ https://nixops.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ https://nixops.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
