try out new providers: cloudsigma, elastichosts, elasticstack!

[Adrian Cole]

Hi, team.

I've just finished work on a couple new providers, which are in jclouds snapshot.  I don't have a quick-start or otherwise wikis, yet, but these work the same as all others using the ComputeService:

jclouds-elasticstack/1.0-SNAPSHOT

provider: elasticstack

required property: elasticstack.endpoint
identity: UUID
credential: Secret API key

provider: elastichosts-lon-p (Peer 1 London)

signup link: https://lon-p.elastichosts.com/accounts
identity: UUID
credential: Secret API key
console: https://lon-p.elastichosts.com/accounts/trial

provider: elastichosts-lon-b (BlueSquare London)

signup link: https://lon-b.elastichosts.com/accounts
identity: UUID
credential: Secret API key
console: https://lon-b.elastichosts.com/accounts/trial

provider: elastichosts-sat-p (Peer 1 San Antonio)

signup link: https://sat-p.elastichosts.com/accounts
identity: UUID
credential: Secret API key
console: https://sat-p.elastichosts.com/accounts/trial

jclouds-cloudsigma/1.0-SNAPSHOT

provider: cloudsigma (CloudSigma Zurich)

signup link: https://cs.cloudsigma.com/accounts/signup/
identity: registered email
credential: corresponding password
console: https://cs.cloudsigma.com/

All of the above offer free trials, so feel free to give it a try!

Cheers,
-Adrian

Hi,

For Elastichosts, currently is it possible to write binary data to a drive using Jclouds or we have to write our own functions for this ?

Thank You

[Adrian Cole]

It appears this code is available:

client.writeDrive(drive2.getUuid(), Payloads.newStringPayload("foo"));
assertEquals(Strings2.toString(client.readDrive(drive2.getUuid(),
0, 3)), "foo");

Thanks alot Adrian.

Regarding CloudSigma, I believe its implementation is based on API version 1.0. Or we already have upgraded to CloudSigma API ver. 2.0 ?

[Adrian Cole]

cloudsigma is still at v1

[Aaqib Gadit]

okay as per their support, they are moving to API version 2 ( currently available on their website ) which they say is better,

[Adrian Cole]

yeah I suppose someone will have to update the code then.
