Instance instrumentation one more time

[Marek Goldmann]

Hi guys,

Last time I checked, it wasn't decided how Deltacloud will support instance instrumentation (UserData on EC2 or file injection on some other Cloud providers). Can you please tell me what's the current status of this feature?

Thanks!

UserData on EC2 is supported (it's advertised in the top-level
entrypoint as the 'user-data' feature)

For RAX, we still need to add it to the API (as another feature); it
just keeps slipping through the cracks.

I am not aware of any other cloud that supports data injection through
the API - but more than happy to add to Deltacloud to support that.
