User configurability
====================
`Cloud-init`_ 's behavior can be configured via user-data.
User-data can be given by the user at instance launch time.
This is done via the ``--user-data`` or ``--user-data-file`` argument to
ec2-run-instances for example.
* Check your local clients documentation for how to provide a `user-data`
string or `user-data` file for usage by cloud-init on instance creation.
