使用OpenStack API访问SoftLayer资源

Question

I'm trying to use OpenStack API to access SoftLayer resources.

So far I had been trying to use Jumpgate without success.

Do you know if is it possible to access SoftLayer resources using OpenStack API, not only Object Storage ?

In case that it is not possible, do you know if Rackspace does support OpenStack API ?

Thank you

Answer 1

Unfortunately, there is not possible to access SoftLayer resources through OpenStack API. You can only access to Object Storage, because it is based on OpenStack Swift.

Regarding to Rackspace, I think is the same idea, they should have his own API to access its resources.

I can say with absolute certainty that you can use the OpenStack API with Rackspace. For docs and tools see https://developer.rackspace.com/
