-Boto is a Python package that provides interfaces to Amazon Web Services. |
-At the moment, boto supports: |
- |
- * Simple Storage Service (S3) |
- * SimpleQueue Service (SQS) |
- * Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) |
- * Mechanical Turk |
- * SimpleDB |
- * CloudFront |
- * CloudWatch |
- * AutoScale |
- * Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) |
- * Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) |
- * Elastic Map Reduce (EMR) |
- * Relational Data Service (RDS) |
- * Simple Notification Server (SNS) |
- * Google Storage |
- * Identity and Access Management (IAM) |
- * Route53 DNS Service (route53) |
- * Simple Email Service (SES) |
- |
-The intent is to support additional services in the future. |
- |
-The goal of boto is to provide a very simple, easy to use, lightweight |
-wrapper around the Amazon services. Not all features supported by the |
-Amazon Web Services will be supported in boto. Basically, those |
-features I need to do what I want to do are supported first. Other |
-features and requests are welcome and will be accomodated to the best |
-of my ability. Patches and contributions are welcome! |
- |
-Boto was written using Python 2.6.5 on Mac OSX. It has also been tested |
-on Linux Ubuntu using Python 2.6.5. Boto requires no additional |
-libraries or packages other than those that are distributed with Python 2.6.5. |
-Efforts are made to keep boto compatible with Python 2.4.x but no |
-guarantees are made. |

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

-for details. |
