What exactly is JClouds?

A framework for controlling clouds!?

Hi, Wallace.

Thanks for the question :)

jclouds does let you control clouds, but it is a library not a
framework :) We focus on portability and try not to get in the way,
should you need direct access to vendor-specific functionality. Our
most developed apis are BlobStore and ComputeService.

Here's an overview deck: http://www.slideshare.net/jclouds/jclouds-overview

Some use jclouds to persist content to BlobStores such as Amazon S3;
others deploy their platforms to Compute clouds like Terremark eCloud
(which is recently in Brasil, I might add :) ). We keep docs on the
wiki [1]

You can use jclouds java or clojure apis directly, via integration
with OSGi, Karaf, HDFS, Ant [2], or through other tools that employ
jclouds such as whirr or pallet [3].

If you have a use case we don't yet cover, let us know!

Pretty much - although of course there's more to it than that ;-) You
might want to start with the home and project pages:

for more information.

I'm doing some tests on Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud and was looking for a way to create or delete virtual machines on demand if they were not centered in a cluster.

I will try as soon as possible to do some tests on the UEC. ^ ^

Hi, Wallace.

We currently test against the eucalyptus partner cloud, although it
hasn't been run since they moved up to version 3.

Probably using the straight-up eucalyptus settings should get you
pretty far. If you wish to create a single machine, just create a
group of size one and set the group name to the name you wish your
machine to have.

Since others will likely want to use UEC, feel free to share settings
here or on the jclouds-dev group.

Cheers!
