      <title><![CDATA[[0] API access to billing data]]></title>
      <link>http://www.apiwanted.org/ideatorrent/idea/8/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Most providers do not offer this type of call in their API at all. Gogrid are the only provider that gives a full xml 'summary' of current billing status but this is the exception not the rule. Rimuhosting allow you to query the billing status for a particular server instance.<br /><br />Estimation of costs is obviously not a good option but some providers don't even expose an 'Instance launch time'.  <br />

      <link>http://www.apiwanted.org/ideatorrent/idea/7/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Right now, when you request load balancer details from API, response contains just IP addresses instead of instances. It would be nice to get list of instances here.<br />Another approach could be a new API call, to filter Instances using 'ip' parameter.<br />

      <link>http://www.apiwanted.org/ideatorrent/idea/6/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Now when you create a new instance it is not identified by unique ID. This ID is assigned after Instance becomes ready. <br />It would be nice to return this ID right after create call, so we can use it as unique identifier.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[Rackspace should allow to upload custom user images like EC2 does.<br /><br />Currently it is only possible to create an image from a running instance called "On-demand Image" which is not sufficient.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[Ability to migrate a (stopped) VM from one cloud provider to another.<br /><br />Example: A university is running a private cloud on RHEV. During a peak class sign-up period, they want to shift some core systems from their internal cloud to an elastic public cloud provider, and dramatically scale up the resources available to those VMs. Once the peak period is over, they want to bring the VMs back into the private cloud. <br />

      <link>http://www.apiwanted.org/ideatorrent/idea/2/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[GoGrid currently provides no way to inject user-defined data into newly created instances.<br /><br />It would be very useful if it offered a mechanism for that, similar to how EC2 allows adding the user-data to the special HTTP server at 169.254.169.254, or how Rackspace allows providing the contents of up to 5 files directly.<br />

      <link>http://www.apiwanted.org/ideatorrent/idea/1/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The API calls for starting instances (e.g. RunInstances) should take an optional argument for a user-defined name for the instance, i.e. a new metadata field that is reported back in the instance details.<br /><br />This is useful for applications who need to track instances they created to ensure that they never lose track of one of their instances, even if they do not receive the response to the create request.<br />
