Michal Fojtik commented on DTACLOUD-17:
---------------------------------------

You can filter images using architecture and owner by 'architecture=i386' and 'owner_id=amazon'. But implementation is not perfect for now, because filtering is done on Deltacloud API side (which means that you need to get all images and when filter it (for architecture). I'll try to look on aws gem if there are some options for filtering using 'extended' attributes like arch or name and so.

> Since the amount of images that are carried on ec2 (for instance) is huge (about 6700 at the moment), it would be very nice to be able to search for images that fullfill certain criterias or search terms.
> In terms of tooling / frontent a list of 6700 images is far too large for users. IMHO a very handy way to shrink the images that are presented to the user is to let the user search for images and report only those. 
> The aws console implements a similiar approach. It initially only lists the images you own. You can change this by switching predefined filters (combobox: images/32-bit images/amazon images etc.).
