Hey, Clouders!
I know that, you guys, are focused on Amazon's EC2.
Anyway, please, take a look on CloudSigma: http://cloudsigma.com/
- The company supports KVM/Qemu and we all know the benefits of that. - Their backend is awesome. - Nice ReST API: http://www.cloudsigma.com/en/platform-details/the-api - Pay as you go or subscription - 14 day trial - They, currently, support Fedora 13. - They let you upload your ISOs and share them with the community
It's worth a look. This is, by no means, SPAM. I'm not trying to sell you anything. I'm just a very happy user. I think, Fedora Cloud, should be aware of these options and see what we can do here too! ;)
I hope this doesn't bother anybody ;)
It's hard to be free... but I love to struggle. Love isn't asked for; it's just given. Respect isn't asked for; it's earned! Renich Bon Ciric

One of this SIG's goals is to help get current Fedora images onto a variety of cloud providers. As we are just starting out, EC2 happens to be the top priority, but we definitely encourage other providers to work with us to help us help them help us all provide the best Fedora experience possible.
Man, I sound like a politician...

LOL. Yeah, you got my vote!
Anyway, glad to read what you typed! ;) I've uploaded the netinstall cd to CloudSigma. The incoming transfer is free with them so it costs nothing to install via netinstall... and the speed is astonishing!
Thank you for the attention. I hope we can work with these guys since they're very accessible.

Interesting. One way to get adoption for it is to add a driver to Apache Deltacloud for it[1]
It might be a little challenging from looking at the API docs, seeing how the API returns values that aren't in any serialization format I recognize (is it YAML ? If so, it's missing the '--- ' marker at the very least)
But I'd love to be proven wrong ;)

Nah, it's not necessary to have this in YAML. See example in the middle of the page [1].
But this CloudSigma API doesn't seem to return valid YAML. What's that? I cannot imagine someone invented new format... :)
