Building on Cloudstack

[Seif Eddine Jemli <se...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I am working on a project using Cloudstack.
I'll need to implement a scheduler to control the virtual machines
generated by Cloudstack.* (in fact, the project is about parallel calculus
on different virtual machines).*

So, it seems that i have to use the Cloudstack API.

i wanted to ask for some tips and reading material to help a computer
science student in his project.

Any example of source code would be helpful.

thanks in advance.

Then I highly recommend checking out jclouds as your API wrapper.  It
support CloudStack.

There are lots of language bindings available to make it easier to get
started.  What language do you prefer?
