Abstract
Methods and apparatus involve managing computing services for workloads. A storage of services available to the workloads are maintained as virgin or golden computing images. By way of a predetermined policy, it is identified which of those services are necessary to support the workloads during use. Thereafter, the identified services are packaged together for deployment as virtual machines on a hardware platform to service the workloads. In certain embodiments, services include considerations for workload and service security, quality of service, deployment sequence, storage management, and hardware requirements necessary to support virtualization, to name a few. Meta data in open virtual machine formats (OVF) are also useful in defining these services. Computer program products and computing arrangement are also disclosed.
