By using cloud init, we could significantly reduce the time it takes to get to a working shell on a VM.

It also could help us set hostnames, assign IPs, etc.

I was able to unblock this by creating a Docker image for cloud-localds: https://github.com/neptune-networks/cloud-localds-docker.

I'll be adding some documentation around that, but so far things are looking promising for Ubuntu. Investigating some problems with networking in Debian.

I've successfully got Debian and Ubuntu cloud images working in a test environment. Still to be tested are CentOS and Fedora (though I wonder if it would be preferable to deprecate Fedora and add ISOs for FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and VyOS).
