Hi Cyrill,

Usually our approach is not to migrate images between providers. In the
medium term it is a nightmare, multiple versions of the same image spread
across different clouds, it is very difficult to distributed patches and
image updates, and the cost of moving things in/out increases.

Our recommendation is to use vanilla OS installs plus a configuration
management software of your choice (ansible, chef, puppet...), this way you
just need to maintain a single receipt rather than multiple installations.

If you need to import an image, you could follow any procedure target for
your base hypervisor (if any).

Cheers

Ruben
