Cloud systems are composed of multiple inter-connected independent systems. These systems are complex in nature as they are made of heterogeneous components rife with complicated interactions, operate in dynamic conditions, and exhibit unpredictable behaviors. Despite all the complexity, developers of these systems are tasked to efficiently design, implement, optimize, operate, and improve these systems in a continuous fashion. A proposed way of managing the complexity for designing, implementing, and optimizing these systems is to automate these tasks. There are three major roadblocks preventing this automation from becoming reality - (i) lack of abstractions for design and implementation and design exploration of cloud systems; (ii) lack of abstractions and tooling converting user's high level design intent into actual implementations;  (iii) lack of abstractions for leveraging runtime information for optimizing cloud systems. I propose new abstractions for cloud systems, with a special focus on microservice systems, for automating developer tasks. The work I will present takes us one step closer to the vision of automating the design, implementation, and optimization of cloud systems whilst managing the inherent complexity of these systems.
