    Abstract: Examples of systems described herein include a computing node configured to execute a hypervisor and a hypervisor independent interface software layer configured to execute on the computing node. The interface software layer may be configured to determine configuration information and an operating system for a virtual machine to be created, receive an instruction to create the virtual machine through the hypervisor independent interface software layer, convert the instruction to create the virtual machine into a hypervisor specific command, create a virtual machine instance responsive to the hypervisor specific command, generate an image file by accessing a customization tool library from a plurality of customization tool libraries based, at least in part, on the customization information operating system for the virtual machine, attach the image file to the virtual machine, and power on the virtual machine instance.
