Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for virtual workload orchestration. In some embodiments, a first cloud provider can obtain a virtual machine image and convert the virtual machine image to a virtual image format based on an environment associated with a second cloud provider. Next, the first cloud provider can provision a guest operating system associated with the virtual machine image with one or more drivers based on the hypervisor associated with the second cloud provider to yield a converted and provisioned virtual machine image. The first cloud provider can then transmit the converted and provisioned virtual machine image to the second cloud provider to be registered as a template virtual machine at the second cloud provider.
