Abstract
Methods for instantiating virtual operating systems are presented. A virtual operating system can be aggregated from a pool of services as a function of a virtual operating system state. The state comprises a service, a location of the service, and a starting point from which the service should begin to offer services.
Claims20
A method of instantiating a virtual operating system, the method comprising:
- (a) requesting a first service from a pool of services as a function of a state associated with the virtual operating system;
- (b) allocating the first service to the virtual operating system;
- and
- (c) providing an interface to an application to access to the first service;
- wherein the state comprises the first service, a location of the first service, and a starting point for executing the first service.

A method of disaggregating an operating system, the method comprising:
- (a) providing a discoverable pool of services associated with the operating system;
- (b) adapting a first service and a second service within the pool of services to interact through a network;
- (c) providing an interface to an application to access the first service;
- and
- (d) storing a state associated with the operating system in a memory where in the state comprises at least the first service, a location of the first service, and a starting point for executing the first service.
