-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2014-0516 2014-02-11 17:16:10 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : python-boto Product : Fedora EPEL 6 Version : 2.25.0 Release : 2.el6 URL : https://github.com/boto/boto Summary : A simple lightweight interface to Amazon Web Services Description : Boto is a Python package that provides interfaces to Amazon Web Services. It supports over thirty services, such as S3 (Simple Storage Service), SQS (Simple Queue Service), and EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) via their REST and Query APIs. The goal of boto is to support the full breadth and depth of Amazon Web Services. In addition, boto provides support for other public services such as Google Storage in addition to private cloud systems like Eucalyptus, OpenStack and Open Nebula.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
This update contains a fix that makes S3Connection.get_bucket use HEAD requests instead of GET requests, which reduces the price of those requests by 90%. Code that parses error messages may require updating. See the upstream release notes for additional details.
This update also contains several bugfixes and support for a few new capabilities that were added to AWS over the past month.
