With Boto, you can get started in minutes with a single, downloadable package complete with the AWS Python library, code samples, and documentation. You can build Python applications on top of APIs that take the complexity out of coding directly against web services interfaces. The all-in-one library provides Python developer-friendly APIs that hide much of the lower-level tasks associated with programming for the AWS cloud, including authentication, request retries, and error handling. Practical examples are provided in Python for how to use the libraries to build applications. For information about Boto, sample code, documentation, tools, and additional resources, go to http://aws.amazon.com/python/.
