What is resalloc-aws
When allocating/removing a machine in AWS/EC2 from command-line, there are many non-trivial options in the ‘aws-cli’ command. This project provides a simplified wrapping command. The ‘resalloc-aws-new’ script is able to (a) start a machine, (b) wait till SSH is available and (c) run a specified playbook.
