-Description: init scripts for cloud instances
- Cloud instances need special scripts to run during initialisation
- to retrieve and install ssh keys and to let the user run various scripts.
+Description: configuration and customization of cloud instances
+ System to handle early initialization of a cloud instance. Cloud-init can for
+ example set a default locale and a host name, generate SSH private host keys,
+ add SSH keys to a user's .ssh/authorized_keys so they can log in, and set up
+ ephemeral mount points.
+ .
+ Cloud-init's behavior can be configured via user-data, given by the user at
+ instance launch time.
