The Fedora Cloud SIG publishes cloud images in many different formats. Download raw, qcow2 (OpenStack), Vagrant, and Google Compute Engine images on the [https://alt.fedoraproject.org/cloud/ Fedora Cloud page].
 
You can also quickly launch instances directly on AWS using the quick launch links at the bottom of the [https://alt.fedoraproject.org/cloud/ Fedora Cloud page].
 
Fedora Cloud images are also available from your local Fedora mirror within the `Cloud` directory of any release tree. For example, Fedora 39 cloud images for the x86_64 architecture are available inside the `/releases/39/Cloud/x86_64/images/` directory. See the directory on [https://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/39/Cloud/x86_64/images/ mirrors.kernel.org] as a quick example.

= To-Do List =
* Testing:
** Can start working on this now with local xen testing - we can test and tune the ks file on rhel 5.3 or newer hosts.
** Testing without ec2 requires a xen host - once you have a xen host, you can create an image with appliance-tools using the kickstart file from huff.
** Need to get location of file from huff. ''Please link it here!''
** Boot image, make sure it works, look for critical packages, report back if things are needed or something doesn't work (or does work).
** ''Need to identify list of critical packages''
** ''Need to identify place for people to list their test results - GOOD OR BAD''
* Documentation
** Start by documenting how to boot an image from EC2 - ami-988b60f1 is an example, document the use of it, and we change the names to the official release when it is ready.
** amazon documentation should be linked off the ec2 login page - can be a good reference point. (rbergeron, 21:17:43)
** need separate docs for publishing to ec2, and booting an image from ec2. But booting and using is the more important, and one that can be worked on now (in fact testers can use it for testing instructions)

The Fedora Cloud Special Interest Group


Fedora Cloud SIG

The Fedora Cloud SIG works to make Fedora successful on all major cloud platforms, public and private.

⛅ Review the new Cloud PRD for a much more detailed look into our purpose, objectives, and status.

Get Fedora Cloud Images!

The Fedora Cloud SIG publishes cloud images in many different formats. Download raw, qcow2 (OpenStack), Vagrant, and Google Compute Engine images on the Fedora Cloud page.

You can also quickly launch instances directly on AWS using the quick launch links at the bottom of the Fedora Cloud page.

Fedora Cloud images are also available from your local Fedora mirror within the Cloud directory of any release tree. For example, Fedora 39 cloud images for the x86_64 architecture are available inside the /releases/39/Cloud/x86_64/images/ directory. See the directory on mirrors.kernel.org as a quick example.

Joining and participating in the Cloud SIG

We don't have a formalized join process. Signing up on the mailing list, coming to Cloud SIG meetings, and joining our IRC channel are good ways to get involved.

Mailing List

We use the mailing list for deeper discussions about cloud-related issues and you are welcome to join us! to the list@lists.fedoraproject.org/ Subscribe to the list today and join a discussion.

Review the archives to learn what we've talked about so far.

IRC

Meetings

The Fedora Cloud SIG meets every other week on Thursday at 15:00 UTC on irc.libera.chat in the #fedora-meeting-1 channel. Everyone is welcome to join at any time, and we enjoy welcoming new people into the discussion. 👋🏻

📅 You can review the meeting schedule and download files to import into your calendar in the Fedora calendar application, Fedocal.
