What is the industry standard to specify Virtual machine configuration in a summary format?

I have seen notations like these:

4 CPU x 8 GB RAM VM

Is it an industry standard ?

No, there is no standard and no best way. This is off-topic here, please read the FAQ.

  • can you link to the rule? – Tom May 23 '12 at 09:29
  • @TomH Oh, I wasn't aware that the tag autolinking isn't working in answers, just in comments. – Sven May 23 '12 at 09:34
  • I guess I meant is that off topic because it is a "learning material recommendation", or that it is chatty/discursive? – Tom May 23 '12 at 09:44
  • I think chatty/discursive nails it. It's also not an actual problem per se, IMHO. – Sven May 23 '12 at 09:47

    what about if it was reframed as "What is the industry standard to specify Virtual machine configuration in a summary format?". I guess my point is you could get into a discussion about almost anything, but there are only a few major VM players, and cloud providers, and if they have standardized around something, then there is a specific answer to the question. – Tom May 23 '12 at 09:53
  • I think it would be interesting in the context of a standard for programmatic descriptions of VM's, especially in the context of cross-vendor vm migration and service catalog population but otherwise it is more of an exercise in marketing interpretation – rnxrx May 23 '12 at 14:46
