We'd like to be able to leverage t1.micro instances, any idea when those (and ebs-based instances in general) are available?

    it will take a couple of weeks as we are working on other features right now but it is on our todo list.

    Do you guys mind sharing a rough roadmap somewhere?

    We don't have a published roadmap but the soon-to-be-released features are:

    1) scalarium-client: a command-line helper as part of the agent that allows you to trigger event, run Chef and helps when working on recipes.

    2) Vagrant support and published images

    3) Elastic Load-Balancer

    4) New dashboard with nicer UI, monitoring information

    5) Notification center for email notification

    Those are the current top items. The micro-instance / EBS instances is then in the next stash of features.

    Any updates here? I would love to see micro instances in scalarium, too - and I am pretty curious what "Vagrant support" might be. :-)

    No update regarding the micro instances, yet.

    The scalarium-client is available, see http://www.scalarium.com/blog/2011-11-17-introducing-the-scalarium-....

    As for Vagrant support, the idea is to provide you with an easy way to simulate a Scalarium instance locally, in Vagrant.
    The following Vagrantfile should give you an idea.

    Vagrant::Config.run do |config|
  config.vm.provision :scalarium do |scalarium|
    scalarium.api_token = 'your-api-token'
    scalarium.cloud_id = 'some-cloud-id'
    scalarium.instance_id = 'some-instance-id'
    scalarium.activity = 'setup'
  end
end

    The rest is still in the making.

    Someone mentioned (I think Jonathan) that potentially we could run the scalarium-client on non-EC2/euc instances too and make instances report in the interface. Any thoughts on that?

    Also, is the code somewhere available (open source)?

    (Btw, I'm stepping back from t1.micro and all ebs-based instances. It's just not worth it.)

    Is there any update on "Vagrant support"? Would really appreciate being able to have a simulated Scalarium instance locally.

    We have no date on that yet, we haven't spent the last weeks working on that because we were busy migrating a lot of our backend to SWF. We will post updates here once we have a beta version.

    I find no humour in this. How soon is soon?
