Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention generally describe how to utilize a pool of raw computing resources to dynamically resize environments due to workloads. Specifically, embodiments of the invention provide an approach for generating a partially pre-provisioned pool of virtual machines (VMs). The pool is typically derived from a history of patterns weighted by a potential state of a corresponding VM image to fulfill a workload request. For each VM instance, this approach determines/calculates the number of times that an instance represents a possible starting point for a VM request. The starting points are then normalized to create a probability distribution of the resulting partially pre-provisioned pool of virtual machines.
