Infrastructure Manager v1.4.6

The Infrastructure Manager (IM) is a tool that deploys complex and customized virtual infrastructures on IaaS Cloud deployments (such as AWS, OpenStack, etc.).

• It eases the access and the usability of IaaS clouds by automating the VMI (Virtual Machine Image) selection, deployment, configuration, software installation, monitoring and update of the virtual infrastructure.
• It supports APIs from a large number of virtual platforms, making user applications cloud-agnostic.
• In addition it integrates a contextualization system to enable the installation and configuration of all the user required applications providing the user with a fully functional infrastructure.

This version evolved in the INDIGO-Datacloud project by adding support to TOSCA documents as input for the infrastructure creation.
