Abstract

A mechanism is provided for presenting a software application to a plurality of users in a cloud computing environment. For example, an application that was designed for use by a single user is provided in a cloud based platform without re-architecting the application. Using a web-based interface, multiple cloud users may launch and execute the application. The various instances of the application are provided to the cloud users as if the application were designed as a multi-user application.
