This repository uses the AWS Pricing API through CloudBridge (https://github.com/cloudve/cloudbridge) to determine what Instance Types are available in each availability zone, and extracts information about the instance types from the ec2instances.info's JSON file.
This repository auto-updates daily, in two halves, through Travis CI CRON jobs.
CloudBridge (https://github.com/cloudve/cloudbridge) is a Python library, developped by members of the Galaxy Project community (https://galaxyproject.org), that provides a consistent layer of abstraction over different Infrastructure-as-a-Service cloud providers, reducing or eliminating the need to write conditional code for each cloud. CloudBridge v2 currently supports AWS, Azure, GCP, and OpenStack, providing a standardized and easily extendable library to manage resources on any of those providers. This library is meant to be used for the AWS VMTypes service in CloudBridge.
Community contributions for any part of the project are welcome. If you have a completely new idea or would like to bounce your idea before moving forward with the implementation, feel free to create an issue to start a discussion. Contributions should come in the form of a pull request.
