Abstract
Technology for generating, building, maintaining and sharing a pool of virtual environments. The virtual environments (for example, virtual machines) are instantiated and active prior to a request from a user to use a virtual environments. Delta maps are used to help match the request to the best-suited active virtual environment. The delta map is a data set that indicates differences between specification values of a given active virtual environment and specification values needed to reliably fulfill the user's request.
