3.2 Workload Templates
Workload templates are used to create business service workloads. A workload template defines the following:
-
The VM template used to create the workload.
-
Resource customizations to apply to the workload. For example, if the VM template provides 2 CPUs, you can increase that number to 4 CPUs.
-
The license and setup costs associated with a workload created from the template.
You create a catalog of workload templates from which users can choose when requesting business services. Depending on the needs of your users, you might have many workload templates. The examples in the following illustration are based on workload operating system, but you might have workload templates that provide not only the operating system but also applications or other services.
