GoGrid API

The GoGrid API is a web service that allows developers and tech-savvy individuals to control their interaction with GoGrid's cloud hosting infrastructure. The GoGrid API provides programmatic communication for controlling GoGrid's control panel functionality. Typical API use cases include auto-scaling cloud server networks, listing assigned public and private IP addresses, deleting cloud servers, and listing billing details—just to name a few applications.

The GoGrid API specification is now available under a Creative Commons Sharealike license, allowing any cloud computing service provider to build a compatible API based on this OpenSpec. Tools based on this OpenSpec standard can be used to control the GoGrid platform, as well as the products of any other compatible cloud computing providers.
