Sometimes all you really want is to launch a bunch of trained monkeys into the cloud.

Ham was the name of the first chimp NASA sent into space: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ham_the_Chimp

"ham" is a command line tool for launching a one or more cloud servers on an OpenStack cloud, running a bit of bash, and capturing the result.
