Goal

Introduce self service for virtualization in the developer perspective.

User Stories

Templates

• As a developer I want to easily consume a virtual machine from a template that an admin has prepared for me so I can quickly begin a new project. 
• As an admin I want to be able to easily provide a backing provision source to a vendor template so the developer can quickly create a new virtual machine.
• As an admin I want to be able to prepare a template with any requirements the developer might need from the operating system environment so they have any software requirements fulfilled in the template.

Resource Quotas

• As an admin I want to ensure a developer does not exceed a specific quota set for their project so they can self service without impacting other projects and their resources.
• As a developer I want to be able to easily understand the quota that has been set for both the project I'm working on and my user account so I know how to better manage my projects and when to request more resources.

Pipelines

• As an admin I want to prepare a pipeline for my developer that provides them an environment (OS + custom app built from sources) that is ready for their application development so the developer can easily work on their application
•  As a developer, I want to be able to run a pipeline which results in a VM created using an immutable golden OS image and a mutable data disk containing my application so I can use it for development

Connection

• As a developer I want to be able to easily obtain the connection information for the VM I've created for my application (either from a template or from a pipeline) so I can use this service without contacting an admin

Hello world

• As a developer I want to be able to easily create an example vm with a bootable OS I can play around with so I can better understand what CNV provides in the developer perspective
• As an admin I want to be able to easily create an example vm with a bootable OS I can play around with so I can better understand what CNV provides in the admin perspective
