Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments for customizing component configurations used in utility computing. A listing of multiple computing components that may be selected to define a component configuration is generated. A selection by a customer of a subset of the computing components is stored as a component configuration. A deployment is initiated for one or more customized computing devices that conform to the component configuration in a networked plurality of computing devices in response to a request by the customer.
