Techniques are described for a domain-specific language and associated framework for implementing analyses of security, operational, or functional properties involving computing resources. The specification language enables users to readily define the semantics of a set of cross-resource relations of interest using a human-readable language. For example, the language enables users to express properties over computing resources based on a user-defined set of cross-resource relations. The specification language is human-readable, allowing users to easily add new cross-resource relations or to modify existing relations and properties, thereby enabling users to readily modify existing analyses or to create new ones entirely. The specification language is also machine-readable such that a compiler and other tools can automatically generate an ontology model based on local resource configurations, augment the graph with the cross-resource relations defined in the specifications, and perform graph reachability analyses based on defined properties of interest.
