Abstract

A method and apparatus for creating a machine image to be used in instantiating virtual nodes in a cloud computing environment. A virtual machine operating system image is created based on the configuration file. The machine operating system image is loaded in the cloud environment as a machine instance. An EBS disk is created based on the configuration file, and the EBS disk is attached to the machine instance. The method and apparatus allow software to be provisioned on the fly merely by being specified in the configuration file, which can be an XML file or other declarative document.
