Salt Cloud

libcloud

• Python module that provides a Cloud Provider API abstraction

• Ability to write apps using multiple providers

• Now with an improved CloudStack driver

libcloud

conn=Driver(key=apikey,secret=secretkey,secure=True,host=host,path=path)

conn.list_locations()

conn.list_images()

conn.list_sizes()

conn.create_node(name=’foobar',image=images[0],size=offerings[0])
