I would like to join the CentOS Cloud Instance SIG on behalf of the Oracle Cloud team.
My background in IT spans 25 years across verticals and Operating Systems. In my current Solution Architect role at Oracle, our team engages with System Integrator, ISV partners and Communities such as CentOS so their technologies and solutions are enabled on exciting new Oracle products and technologies through reference architectures, solution design, best practices and implementation guidance. My current focus area includes Oracle Compute Cloud Services and Oracle Marketplace.
Oracle Compute Cloud Service is an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offering that provides flexible and scalable compute, block storage, and networking services on Oracle Cloud. Oracle Compute Cloud Service is ideal for customers who want to set up test and development environment in the public cloud, or migrate their on-premises workloads to the public cloud and leverage the benefits of cloud. Oracle customers benefit from Operating System choice to run a variety of workloads in Oracle Compute Cloud Service.
The goals of my participation in the CentOS Cloud Instance SIG are to facilitate community built CentOS official images to exist in the oracle Cloud Marketplace and ensure the users have a good experience, in a community supported format.
Thanks and Regards, Ajay

Welcome to the CentOS Instance SIG :)
We work with a baseline image from http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/images/CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud.qcow2 - the best first step would be to try and quantify the changes we need to make to that in order to get things setup as needed. I realise there are two things on the list already:
1) we need better paravirt testing 2) we need cloud-init ( and might need some patches specific for your infra ).
Is there anything else we need to get done here ?
And from there, do you have any things as to what the testing process look like ?
regards
