Claim:
1. A method for converting a virtual pattern with embedded middleware to a version deployable on physical machines, comprising: building a pattern for an embedded middleware configured to run on a deployment platform, the deployment platform comprising one or more computing nodes, the pattern representing a logical description of physical and virtual assets and comprising deployment artifacts and configuration settings for use in the deployment platform; generating, based on the pattern, a stand-alone installer to run on a physical machine without dependencies on the deployment platform, the deployment platform comprising a shared pool of configurable computing resources providing on-demand network access and providing virtualized environment, the generating comprising at least converting a bundled operating system virtual image associated with the pattern into a non-virtualized operating system install image by deploying the bundled operating system virtual image on the deployment platform and capturing image file artifacts associated with the deployed virtual image, the non-virtualized operating system install image being an operating system that can run on the physical machine in a non-virtual environment; extracting information from the physical machine; and installing the embedded middleware and the non-virtualized operating system install image on the physical machine by running the stand-alone installer and based on the information extracted from the physical machine.
