<title>Amazon Web Services Compatible Interface</title>
|
|
<para>&PRODUCT; can translate Amazon Web Services (AWS) API calls to native &PRODUCT; API calls
|
|
so that users can continue using existing AWS-compatible tools. This translation service runs as
|
|
a separate web application in the same tomcat server as the management server of &PRODUCT;,
|
|
listening on a different port. The Amazon Web Services (AWS) compatible interface provides the
|
|
EC2 SOAP and Query APIs as well as the S3 REST API.</para>
|
|
<note>
|
|
<para>This service was previously enabled by separate software called CloudBridge. It is now
|
|
fully integrated with the &PRODUCT; management server. </para>
|
|
</note>
|
|
<warning>
|
|
<para>The compatible interface for the EC2 Query API and the S3 API are Work In Progress. The S3 compatible API offers a way to store data on the management server file system, it is not an implementation of the S3 backend.</para>
