Need Juju on cloudstack!

[John Meinel]

One of the easiest ways to do it today would be to use manual
provisioning. So you would spin up your instances using whatever
cloudstack interface you have available (such as the dashboard), and
then you would register those machines with juju (juju add-machine
ssh:user at host), and then you could deploy to those machines.

The logic inside the EC2 provider already has some support for
changing what endpoint it uses based on region. So one semi-hacky way
would be to create a new region that was your cloudstack endpoint. My
personal concern is that without someone actually focused on
supporting Cloudstack, it will mostly work, but when it fails it will
be hard to diagnose and resolve. Right now, it isn't on our own
roadmaps to implement Cloudstack support, but we would be willing to
help someone who was interested in doing so.
