Would you consider to support the Rackspace drivers for Apache libcloud? It's a great library for projects using mixed infrastructure from different IaaS providers.
It may not be in the primary interest of Rackspace, but definitely in the primary interest of many Rackspace clients.

- jnoller 13y agoLibcloud was started by cloudkick, which rackspace acquired - for official support we need a dedicated person on staff who can maintain and answer questions from front line support, irc, etc. That's what we mean by officially supported - that said, I have good news: we are looking into it, our pkgcloud, fog, jclouds, etc libraries are multi cloud/iaas libraries, and we believe in supporting these types of libraries (multi cloud, multi provider). Stay tuned - we're working on it.
- candeira 13y agoThanks!
- kingkilr 13y agoAbsolutely, this is going to be a major part of my job going forward (this is my second week at rackspace :)).
- candeira 13y agoThanks too!
- bretpiatt 13y agoTomaz on the Libcloud PMC is a Racker and he's actively involved in the project making it work well with our cloud and others.
- ddispaltro 13y agoRackspace is 100% supported in libcloud, both first-gen and next-gen. Just like bpiatt said, the whole library is maintained by Rackspace employees and others. Side bar: The community has only gotten better and the abstractions too!
