+Aeolus is an umbrella project consisting of several components.
+Each may be used individually or all may be used
+[together](get_it.html "together")

+##Main Components:##
+Core components providing cross and hybrid cloud functionality
+
+- ###[Deltacloud](http://deltacloud.apache.org/ "Deltacloud")###
+ 
+ Deltacloud is the core Aeolus component providing an abstract API which to
issue
+ calls to [many](http://deltacloud.apache.org/drivers) drivers.
+
+ Deltacloud provides a RESTful Stateless API which clients written in any
language
+ can issue calls to cloud providers. The end user specifies the cloud
provider which
+ to connect to and the credentials to use in the REST API headers.
Deltacloud, which
+ implements the [Distributed Management Task Force](http://dmtf.org/)'s
+ [CIMI](http://dmtf.org/standards/cloud) standard, proxies abstract calls to
resources
+ and collections to the backend cloud provider
+
+- ###[Oz](https://github.com/clalancette/oz/wiki "Oz")###
+ Oz is a tool for automatically installing operating systems into files
+ with only minimal up-front input from the user.
+
+ Oz can be used to bootstrap instances running Fedora, RHEL, Debian, Ubuntu,
+ Suse, Windows, and more directly on the cloud.
+
+- ##[ImageFactory](http://github.com/aeolusproject/imagefactory/
"ImageFactory")##
+ Imagefactory provides a simple command abstracting the cloud management
commands
+ to build images, allowing the end user to deploy the same image to any cloud
provider.
+
+ Behind the scenes imagefactory uses oz to build the bootstrap the
environments
+ to base the images off of on the cloud
+
+##Incubation Components:##
+Components in development which to serve various roles by end users
+
+- ##[Conductor](http://github.com/aeolusproject/conductor/ "Conductor")##
+
+ The Conductor UI unifys the various Aeolus components, providing a rich /
high-level
+ interactive user experience to deploy instances and configurations across
clouds
+
+ <div style="clear:both"></div>
+
+- ##[TIM Rails Engine](http://github.com/aeolus-incubator/tim/ "Tim")##
+ TIM is a pluggable Rails Engine which provides image management capabilities
+ to Ruby on Rails based applications. Currently TIM plugins exist to work with
+ imagefactory and other image mangement systems can be easily added.
+
+- ##[Template Repository](https://github.com/aeolus-incubator/templates
"Template Repository")##
+ A community maintained repository of templates verified to work against the
Aeolus
+ suite of utilities to build images and deploy various stacks of components
to the
+ cloud to serve various purposes.
+
+- ##[Heat](http://heat-api.org/ "Heat API")##
+ 
+ Heat is an upcoming an OpenStack project that provides a programmable
interface
+ to orchestrate multiple cloud applications implementing well known standards
such
+ as [CloudFormation](http://aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/) and
+
[TOSCA](http://docs.oasis-open.org/tosca/TOSCA/v1.0/csd04/TOSCA-v1.0-csd04.html)
+
+ <div style="clear:both"></div>
+
+- ##[Audrey](http://github.com/aeolusproject/audrey/ "Audrey")##
+ Audrey facilitates cross cloud configurations and provides
+ post boot configuration tools
+
+- ##[Snap](http://github.com/movitto/snap/ "Snap")##
+ Snap is an in instance cloud configuration utility which allows the end user
to
+ take a snapshot of an instance running on the cloud, able to be restored on
an
+ instance running on another cloud provider.
+
+ Currently snap support rpm based, deb based, and windows based environments.
See
+ the following [guide](http://mo.morsi.org/blog/node/347) on migrating
