The unified OpenStackSDK is intended as a general, flexible
yet consistent programming interface for consumers of a variety of
OpenStack services and environments, and this is where most of the
innovation you seem to be asking about is happening so is probably a
much better choice.

The various "client libraries" (e.g. python-novaclient,
python-cinderclient, et cetera) can also be used to that end, but
are mostly for service-to-service communication these days, aren't
extremely consistent with each other, and tend to eventually drop
support for older OpenStack APIs so if you're going to be
interacting with a variety of different OpenStack deployments built
on different releases you may need multiple versions of the client
libraries (depending on what it is you're trying to do).
