The Apache Libcloud team is pleased to announce the release of Libcloud 0.11.0!

Libcloud is a Python library that abstracts away the differences among multiple cloud provider APIs. It allows users to manage cloud services (servers, storage, load balancers, DNS) offered by many different providers through a single, unified and easy to use API.

Release highlights

General

• Install test files when installing the library. Tests module can now be imported by doing something like this: "from libcloud import test"

• New standard API and methods for managing storage volumes. Base API consists of the following methods: create_volume, destroy_volume, attach_volume, detach_volume.
• New driver for KT UCloud (http://home.ucloud.olleh.com/main.kt) based on the CloudStack driver.
• New Gridspot driver with a basic list and destroy functionality.
