HashiCorp Packer is a tool for creating machine images that can be used with various cloud providers, virtualization platforms, or container systems. Packer uses a builder to create these machine images in different formats. Here are some of the available builders in Packer:
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) builder
- Azure builder
- Docker builder
- Google Cloud builder
- Hyper-V builder
- OpenStack builder
- VirtualBox builder
- VMware builder
- QEMU builder
- DigitalOcean builder
- VMware vSphere builder
- Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) builder
- Alibaba Cloud builder
- LXC/LXD builder
- Vagrant builder
Each builder has its own set of configuration options and is responsible for creating a machine image in a specific format. Packer also supports custom builders, which allow users to create their own builder plugins for specific platforms or use cases.
