Yes, deployDataCenter.py just invokes CloudStack API calls the way the GUI
would.

That script makes it easier/less error prone to set up a cloud compared to
walking through the GUI each time and performing the same setup (it's easy
to make a mistake that way if you often create the same cloud environment
since doing this manually and often can be a bit tedious).

That kind of a script is also necessary for automation activities (like
automated tests that require a CloudStack cloud to be set up, later taken
down, then re-set up).
