Enhancing incomplete cloud templates for infrastructure deployment

A computer system, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processing device coupled to the memory, the processing device to:
• receive a template defining a cloud infrastructure;
• identify, in the template, a resource of the cloud infrastructure, wherein a property of the resource is not defined by the template;
• produce a definition of the property of the resource;
• modify the template using the definition of the property of the resource;
• and
• cause the cloud infrastructure to be provisioned based on the template.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to:

• receiving, by a processing device, a template defining a cloud infrastructure;
• identifying, in the template, an unresolved reference to a template parameter;
• resolving the reference by producing a definition of the template parameter;
• modifying the template to include the definition of the template parameter;
• and
• causing the cloud infrastructure stack to be provisioned based on the template.
