The Amazon EC2 cloud and Juju
List of supported clouds > Amazon EC2
This document describes details specific to using your existing Amazon EC2 cloud with Juju.
See more: Amazon EC2
When using the Amazon EC2 cloud with Juju, it is important to keep in mind that it is a (1) machine cloud and (2) not some other cloud.
See more: Cloud differences in Juju
As the differences related to (1) are already documented generically in our Tutorial, How-to guides, and Reference docs, here we record just those that follow from (2).

![]() If the query looks like a CIDR, then this will match subnets with the same CIDR. If it follows the syntax of a “subnet-XXXX”, this will match the Subnet ID. Everything else is just matched as a Name. |
RESOURCE (cloud) Consistent naming, tagging, and the ability to add user-controlled tags to created instances. |
