Abstract
Techniques for determining host computing systems to deploy virtual machines based on disk specifications are disclosed. In one example, a blueprint to deploy a virtual machine in a cloud computing environment may be received. Further, disk specifications required to deploy the virtual machine may be retrieved from the blueprint. Furthermore, candidate storage entities that support the retrieved disk specifications may be determined. A host computing system that has connectivity to the candidate storage entities may be determined. the determined host computing system may be recommended to deploy the virtual machine.
