Overview

Once per day, for every image type (and provider) configured by nodepool, a new image with cached data for use by devstack. Nodepool spins up new instances and tears down old as tests are queued up and completed, always maintaining a consistant number of available instances for tests up to the set limits of the CI infrastructure.
