Manage Compute users

Manage Compute users

Access to the Euca2ools (ec2) API is controlled by an access key and a secret key. The user’s access key needs to be included in the request, and the request must be signed with the secret key. Upon receipt of API requests, Compute verifies the signature and runs commands on behalf of the user.

To begin using Compute, you must create a user with the Identity service.
