[galaxy-dev] Cloudman vs StarCluster

Hi all - Our organization requires us to use a specific AMI (with a specific flavor of linux) that isn't supported by Cloudman. Its taking us a bit of time to get this combination working.

Its taken more than 3 weeks and we still don't have Galaxy / Cloudman running. I could probably do the same thing with StarCluster and be up and running within a day.

I'm very comfortable with using StarCluster and am wondering if there is any benefit to using Cloudman over StarCluster for node management with Galaxy.

Thoughts?
