please don't.. provision once and snapshot, and deploy the snapshot

Spinnaker is pretty focussed on deployments and as such has those operations as first class citizens (deploy, resize, manage traffic, destroy, etc)

Jenkins is also a first class stage type - it is the way we run the build and test side of our deployments
