API Overview

VPC APIs include both native OpenStack APIs and extension APIs.

A combination of these two types of APIs allows you to use all functions provided by the VPC service. If a function involves both native OpenStack APIs and extension VPC APIs, you are advised to preferentially use the extension VPC APIs.
