Abstract
A system and method for dynamically configuring a virtual machine to accommodate requests of a microservice application program and executing the microservice application program in the virtual machine with optimal computing resources are provided. The method includes: creating a dynamically configurable virtual machine including a first virtual CPU, receiving microservice application code, linking the microservice application code to generate executable code, determining and assigning memory in the dynamically configurable virtual machine for executing the executable code, executing the executable code using the dynamically configurable virtual machine, determining whether the dynamically configurable virtual machine requires reconfiguration and performing reconfiguration of the dynamically configurable virtual machine responsive to determining that the virtual machine requires reconfiguration.
