This looks interesting, but I'm very hesitant to try a new cloud provider with anything critical. What do people do to gain confidence in a cloud provider, other than wait and see if early adopters report anything breaking?

Also, does this provide access to a management API, to programmatically start, configure, and stop servers?

We're working on the API (we use one internally, but we just need more testing / robustness of it before we launch anything)

In an ideal world, consider providing a standard API (e.g. OpenStack) rather than a provider-specific one.
