Ignasi Barrera resolved JCLOUDS-482.
------------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed

As part of the GSoC 2016 project, this is now implemented in the portable Compute Service and in two providers: Google and ProfitBricks.
Further issues should be opened to add the feature to other existing providers, where needed.

> Some providers such as Abiquo or CloudSigma do not have the concept of Hardware Profiles and allow users to specify arbitrary CPU and RAM values.
> The current ComputeService abstraction assumes all providers have Hardware Profiles, and forces implementations of such providers to provide a  fixed (hardcoded) list just to conform the interface.
> It would be great to modernize the Compute workflow so Hardware Profiles are not mandatory and users can manually set their values when needed.
