Google, and OpenStack Cloudsvery easily. To start a vm on AWS you can say::

`Cloudmesh <https://cloudmesh-community.github.io/cm/>`__ is
an evolution of our previous tool that has been used by hundreds of
students and cloud practitioners to interact easily with clouds to
create a service mashup to access common cloud services across a number
of cloud providers.

It is under active development and managed in GitHub at

- Documentation: https://cloudmesh.github.io/cloudmesh-manual/
- Code: https://github.com/cloudmesh/

It has a variety of repositories that add features to Cloudmesh based on
needs by the user.
