cloud-init Description
Cloud images serve as operating system templates, with each instance initially being a perfect replica of the others. The unique attributes of each cloud instance are defined by user data, and cloud-init is the automated tool that applies this data to your instances. This includes various datasource and module references, along with numerous examples for easier implementation. Although cloud-init originated in Ubuntu, it has since been adapted for most major Linux distributions and FreeBSD. For providers of cloud images, cloud-init simplifies the variations among different cloud vendors automatically, ensuring that the official Ubuntu cloud images maintain consistency across all public and private cloud platforms. This uniformity allows users to deploy their applications without worrying about the underlying infrastructure differences.
