Fog with Google

Fog currently supports two Google Cloud services: Google Compute Engine and Google Cloud Storage. The main maintainer for the Google sections is @icco.

Storage

Google Cloud Storage originally was very similar to Amazon's S3. Because of this, Fog implements the XML GCS API. We eventually want to move to the new JSON API, once it has similar performance characteristics to the XML API. If this migration interests you, send us a pull request!

Compute

Google Compute Engine is a Virtual Machine hosting service. Currently it is built on version v1 of the GCE API.

Our implementation of the API currently supports

Server creation, deletion and bootstrapping
Persistent Disk creation and deletion
Image lookup
Network and Firewall configuration
Operations
Snapshots
Instance Metadata

Features we are looking forward to implementing in the future:

Global Metadata support
Image creation
Load balancer configuration

If you are using Fog to interact with GCE, please keep Fog up to date and file issues for any anomalies you see or features you would like.

Thanks!
