So, how far exactly is the API compatible with Openstack? That's the one thing that would be really necessary to match. Basically, can I take tools and utilities that work with Openstack/keystone and have them working without any/much work? If you're able to do this it would be a nice, simple alternative to Openstack. For anyone installing Openstack for the first time, the install is anything but simple.
- cven 14y agoWe try to be aligned with the OpenStack APIs as much as possible. The thing is that even these APIs tend to change frequently. If you have a working application of your own, you'll find that the changes needed are minimal. Our goal is to be 100% and out-of-the-box compatible. Two notes: 1. Synnefo supports advanced operations e.g. dropbox-like syncing, so we use custom extensions for that, 2. We have a full-fledged python client library and associated command line client for everybody to use, see http://www.synnefo.org/docs/kamaki/latest/index.html http://www.synnefo.org/docs/kamaki/latest/index.html
- druiid 14y agoOkay, thanks. I didn't quite understand from what I read on the site though... is the API accessible to TCP connections? Basically, can I spin up instances via Cloudify or similar through a Openstack v2 compatible interface, etc?
