Packer is lightweight, runs on every major operating system, and is highly
|
|
|
|
|
performant, creating machine images for multiple platforms in parallel.
|
|
|
|
|
Packer comes out of the box with support for creating AMIs (EC2), VMware
|
|
|
|
|
images, and VirtualBox images. Support for more platforms can be added via
|
|
|
|
|
plugins.
|
