Abstract

The disclosed technology is generally directed to virtual machines. In one example of the technology, generic virtual machine artifacts are created. The generic virtual machine artifacts include at least one generic compute artifact and at least one generic network artifact. A first virtual machine is composed and booted with the generic virtual machine artifacts. The first virtual machine is caused to enter a state in which the first virtual machine is polling for a configuration with user-specific compute settings, user-specific networking settings, and user-specific storage settings.
