Hi Ximo, Here is a link to the Ambari wiki that should give you an idea of the design, https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Ambari+Design
Currently the API docs are only GET calls. We are working on getting the documentation up-to-date. However, all of the calls made by the web UI are supported and if you want to get a head start before the documentation is ready, you can actually mimic all the calls made by the web UI and create a running cluster.
