HEAT

This is the beginings of an OpenStack project that provides a programmable interface to orchestrate1 multiple cloud applications implementing well known standards such as CloudFormations and Tosca.

Currently we are focusing on CloudFormations but are watching the development of the Tosca specification.

Why heat? It makes the clouds raise and keeps them there.

git clone git@github.com:heat-api/heat.git
