Why don¹t you create a portal and allow to end users choose their requirements and send it to ACS via API , then you can achieve what you want Maybe its not it ACS but Citrix also provide another software which is cloud portal business manager which is do everything for you, you can bundle related compute + storage and network offering as a bundle Sorry, i¹m thinking when i wrote something add some notes on offerings for example Storage Offering #1 - EMC VMAX (High I/O) (Not for Xen Server) :) hehheheh
