What is it about?
The infrastructure-as-code (IaC) is an approach for automating the deployment, maintenance, and monitoring of environments for online services and applications that developers usually do manually. The benefit is not only reducing the time and effort but also the operational costs. This paper aims at describing our experience in applying IaC in cloud-native applications, mainly discussing the key challenges towards modeling and generating IaC faced in the ongoing project Programming Trustworthy Infrastructure-As-Code in a Secure Framework (PIACERE). The concluding insights could spur the wider adoption of IaC by software developers.

Why is it important?
After pointing to a summary of the related work and positioning our contributions in terms of identifying solutions to issues, the paper provides a discussion on the key challenges faced in the ongoing project PIACERE towards modeling and generating IaC. The proposed approach and discussed IaC concerns relate to the field of computing continuum, from Cloud to IoT.
Perspectives
This paper contributes to the context of the challenges in DevOps practice, toward the modeling and generating of IaC. We try to report our experience and provide a meaningful perspective of the issues that might be tackled within similar innovation and research projects as the PIACERE.
