Kind of, there is a CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud.raw.tar.gz ( compare
with CentOS-7-x86_64-GenericCloud.raw.xz )


But again link is not good, and why put raw disk inside the tar?
It would me more natural to have compressed image so one can do
{z,bz,xc}cat cloud.raw.xz > /dev/lvm/vm-disk for example.

Official wiki link is broken regardless.
