Abstract
The invention provides a stateless virtual machine in a cloud computing environment as well as an application thereof, and pertains to the technical field of cloud computing. The stateless virtual machine is mapped into a storage device of a computer in the form of file and specifically comprises: an application data image file for storing an application; an operating system (OS) image file for storing an operating system; and an application middleware corresponding to the application; wherein a middleware core of the application middleware is placed in the OS image file, a middleware configuration of the application middleware is placed in the application data image file, and the middleware core and the middleware configuration are associated so as to realize that the middleware core specifies a corresponding middleware configuration. The virtual machine can realize a stateless condition even for an application in an application middleware environment, the flexibility is good, and the configuration manageability is strong.
