Part II. Managing Cloud Services

Abstract

The Clouds tab is where you can manage your cloud services. A cloud service is the interface through which you manage a cloud deployment. Depending on your cloud platform, the management console will use either a proprietary connection or an API to work with your cloud assets.
The Cloud tab is for managing your cloud services. It allows you to:
  • add/remove cloud service accounts
  • see which cloud services you have accounts with
  • see the images you have deployed into each cloud service
Note
If you do not have any cloud providers service, the tab only shows a Add Cloud Provider button.
The management console supports a wide variety of cloud platforms including:
  • Amazon EC2
  • Rackspace US
  • Rackspace UK
In addition, the management console can use cloud service APIs to interact with cloud platforms.
