In the cloud generation, most application services have been moved from the desktop to the cloud, but we still need a desktop environment to operate applications.Privacy, security, geography, and legacy issues such as the inability to migrate traditional applications, desktop maintenance remains an unavoidable topic for cloud-based information infrastructures.We proposed a virtual disk layering and mass deployment mechanism originate from native OS functions.With it, different pre-configured environment OS and application, disk layering as virtual appliances images can run on a hypervisor computer, multicast deploy from 1 to N machines.In this paper, we use the concept of Cloud-Native to elaborate the management and technology theme of the mechanism.
