Abstract
A method and information processing system are provided for creating a virtual part and for composing and deploying a virtual solution with one or more virtual parts. The virtual part includes: a virtual image including a set of compatible software components; a set of configurability points, each configurability point defining at least one parameter of the virtual part that is configurable; a set of virtual ports, wherein each virtual port indicates at least one of a set of virtual parts required by the virtual part and a set of virtual parts that are compatible with the virtual part; and a set of configuration scripts adapted to reconfigure the virtual image.
