Hello,

snapshot are meant to be backups.
I would not install software on a machine, and then use the snapshot
as a glance image to start many new instances.

you could just create machines with a clean glance image and install
the necessary software with ansible/puppet

if the installation time at boot is too long, you could create glance
images with the software you need with the diskimage-builder creating
a new dib.

Look at this example of a ubuntu glance image with zeppelin and spark
preinstalled:
