I can't speak for all cloud providers but bootstrap-vz disables
persistent nic device names via net.ifnames=0 boot param
see :

this seems a good thing if the platform you build is not the one you run
I do the same for Vagrant Virtualbox images, as I build with qemu for a
Virtual Box target and nic pci position on bus is different
