为什么会有2个Eucalyptus命令集？

Question

Does anyone know why there is two command sets for working with EE Cloud - their syntaxes are:

euca-command-subcommand and euform-command-subcommand ?

The have partially the same commands, so I suppose there are different use cases for them ?

Thank you Rainer

Answer 1

euca-* commands generally relate to the EC2 service.

There are other prefixes for other AWS (compatible) services:

• euare-* : identity and access management
• euform-* : cloudformation
• eulb-* : elastic load balancing
• euscale-* : auto scaling
• euwatch-* : cloudwatch
