Drift management of images

Abstract:

Techniques are described for standardizing configuration levels across a plurality of software deployments. In one embodiment, a standardization management system generates, based on a plurality of software deployments that have different source components, an end state definition that identifies a recommended standard set of source components for the plurality of software deployments. Based on the end state definition that identifies the recommended standard set of source components for the plurality of software deployments, the standardization management system generates an image that includes the standard set of source components for the plurality of software deployments. The image may be used to update software deployments that are part of the plurality of software deployments and do not include the standard set of source components.
