-Euca2ools for Debian
-====================
-
-When installing this package, you may have heard about the concept of cloud computing
-which was brought to considerable attention by the internet merchant Amazon and their EC2
-(elastic compute cloud) and S3 (storage) services. The Eucalyptus team provides such
-services themselves, too, but with an Open Source infrastructure, while achieving a binary
-compatibility with the Amazon API as an independent development.
-
-The basic concept behind the here represented concept of clouds is to have remote storage
-space in the cloud. That arbitrary data may also be bootable disk images, and the EC2
-functionality means to start one or multiple instances of these. The images are not
-necessarily provided by the respective user themselves, but they may instead be shared in
-communities. As such, clouds may be perceived as a continuation of the community-driven
-Linux distributions.
-
-This package provides the functionality to control disk images, i.e. to upload, start or
-stop them. Their initial preparation however is performed by different means, e.g. by the
-package vmbuilder or publicly shared scripts on the internet.
