Original Abstract Submitted

a computer-implemented method for provisioning cloud computing clusters includes receiving a request to create a cloud computing cluster, the cloud computing cluster comprising a clustered filesystem and a requested number of processing nodes and attached storage devices associated with the cloud computing cluster and initiating an initialization process for a single processing node and a corresponding attached storage device responsive to receiving the request to create the cloud computing cluster. the method may also include, previous to completion of the initialization process, requesting and receiving an ip address for the single processing node and a device id for the corresponding attached storage device from one or more cloud infrastructure controllers and configuring the clustered filesystem and a corresponding wan cache using the received ip address and the received device id. a system and computer program product corresponding to the above method are also disclosed herein.
