Describes the role of the Cloud Infrastructure API.
The cloud infrastructure API is a Web service API implemented in Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center that exposes its virtual datacenter management system. This Web service provides access to a subset of the virtual datacenter functionality available through the Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center user interface.
The functionality exposed by the Web service can then be accessed programmatically using the Java client API, the CLI, or by making calls directly to the Web service.
This functionality includes the management of vServers, server templates, network resources, and storage resources for an account.
