Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for configuring virtual machine (VM) images in a networked computing environment (e.g., a cloud computing environment). Specifically, in a typical embodiment, a provided VM image is associated with a set of competing VM images (e.g., via a web-based portal). Once the competing VM image(s) are associated with the provided VM image, a designation of a set of statistical actions can be designated for the provided VM image. Thereafter, a performance of the provided VM image and a performance of each of the set of competing VM images are monitored with respect to a set of predetermined attributes. This allows the performance of the provided VM image to be compared to the performance of each of the set of corresponding VM images. Based on the comparison, at least one of the set of statistical actions can be performed. In a typical embodiment, a statistical action may result in an adjustment (upward or downward) of a value of an attribute of the provided VM image where the performance of the provided image is either under-performing or over-performing with respect to a competing VM image. For example, if the provided image is performing at a speed that is a certain percentage lower than that of its competitors, the speed can be increased by a predetermined amount/percentage. |
