| 10 Boto is a Python package that provides interfaces to Amazon Web Services. | |
| 11 At the moment, boto supports: | |
| 12 | |
| 13 * Simple Storage Service (S3) | |
| 14 * SimpleQueue Service (SQS) | |
| 15 * Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) | |
| 16 * Mechanical Turk | |
| 17 * SimpleDB | |
| 18 * CloudFront | |
| 19 * CloudWatch | |
| 20 * AutoScale | |
| 21 * Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) | |
| 22 * Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) | |
| 23 * Elastic Map Reduce (EMR) | |
| 24 * Relational Data Service (RDS) | |
| 25 * Simple Notification Server (SNS) | |
| 26 * Google Storage | |
| 27 * Identity and Access Management (IAM) | |
| 28 * Route53 DNS Service (route53) | |
| 29 * Simple Email Service (SES) | |
| 30 | |
| 31 The intent is to support additional services in the future. | |
| 32 | |
| 33 The goal of boto is to provide a very simple, easy to use, lightweight | |
| 34 wrapper around the Amazon services. Not all features supported by the | |
| 35 Amazon Web Services will be supported in boto. Basically, those | |
| 36 features I need to do what I want to do are supported first. Other | |
| 37 features and requests are welcome and will be accomodated to the best | |
| 38 of my ability. Patches and contributions are welcome! | |

| 40 Boto was written using Python 2.6.5 on Mac OSX. It has also been tested | |
| 41 on Linux Ubuntu using Python 2.6.5. Boto requires no additional | |
| 42 libraries or packages other than those that are distributed with Python 2.6.5. | |
| 43 Efforts are made to keep boto compatible with Python 2.4.x but no | |
| 44 guarantees are made. | |

| 53 Your credentials can be passed into the methods that create | |
| 54 connections. Alternatively, boto will check for the existance of the | |
| 55 following environment variables to ascertain your credentials: | |
| 56 | |
| 57 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID - Your AWS Access Key ID | |
| 58 AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY - Your AWS Secret Access Key | |
| 59 | |
| 60 Credentials and other boto-related settings can also be stored in a boto config | |
| 61 file. See: | |
