Ofcourse, having these images pushed from here mean that clouds or virtualised environs that have metadata services are able to just-use the image as is, not needing any more tooling etc. And we can easily push monthly image updates and when things like heartbleed come around, there is a single place we need to update.

Wouldn't you still need to configure the services running in each VM?

Yes.

I believe the idea here is to pre-configure as much as possible and complete the remaining configuration via network connectivity (ie: SSH).
