Abstract:

An apparatus and method expedite configuration and deployment of a scalable cloud computing environment. An environment configuration mechanism (ECM) in a cloud manager provides a number of pre-configured virtual servers as embedded cloud environments. The embedded clouds can be quickly utilized by a system administrator with minimal or no configuration to deploy cloud workloads. The embedded clouds use similarly embedded controllers and hosts. As these embedded clouds begin to use additional resources the ECM dynamically relocates embedded cloud elements from the embedded cloud to a more permanent location on dedicated hardware as attached controllers and hosts.
