About Virtual Appliances

InstallAnywhere 2020

InstallAnywhere enables you to leverage your existing investments in building installers for your software and to use the same InstallAnywhere project to build virtual appliances for cloud platforms such as Amazon EC2 and VMware vSphere.

Virtual appliances are prebuilt, preconfigured, ready-to-run application solutions that are packaged along with an optimized operating system called a just enough operating system (JeOS). Only necessary operating system components are included. A virtual appliance is deployed as a subset of a virtual machine running on virtualization technology, such as VMware vSphere or Amazon EC2.
