Abstract
Provided are methods and systems for providing users with a cluster of virtual machines (VMs) on-demand, whereby a group of VMs are provisioned together. Virtual Cluster as a Service (VClaaS) relaxes many restrictions on virtualizing VMs and provides performance benefits at the same or similar encapsulations and security measures that Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) typically provides. The VClaaS system enables users to provision an entire cluster of VMs at a time, and also allows for relaxing the isolation barrier between the machines while maintaining the encapsulation barrier for the cluster as a whole, thereby providing users with improved networking, caching, and scheduling experiences.
