A Common API For All Cloud Providers: libcloud
14
Dec
libcloud is a standard client library, written in Python, to access popular cloud hosting providers.
Using cloud services without the need to learn APIs for each of them & building web applications that use multiple providers become much easier.
libcloud currently supports ~8 cloud hosting providers including Amazon EC2, Slicehost & Rackspace.
It would be lovely to see similar libraries built for other scripting languages which will make the lives of developer easier.

There are at least two alternatives to libcloud out now – deltacloud and jclouds (see http://bit.ly/9pLiJs) – have you considered them too?
@Rob Al,
Thanks so much for the info. They both look great and will be sharing them soon.
