IMS provides public, private, and shared images.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" id="EN-US_TOPIC_0109822378__p15237557">Image Management Service (IMS) allows you to manage the entire lifecycle of your images. You can create ECSs or BMSs from public, private, or shared images. You can also create a private image from a cloud server or an external image file to make it easier to migrate workloads to the cloud or on the cloud.</p>

<p id="EN-US_TOPIC_0109822378__p43856003">A public image is a standard OS image provided by the cloud platform and is visible to all users. It consists of an OS and pre-installed public applications. You can deploy personal applications as needed.</p>

<p id="EN-US_TOPIC_0109822378__p36865885">A private image is an image available only to the image owner. It contains an OS, pre-installed public applications, and the image owner's private applications. Using a private image to create servers removes the need to configure multiple servers repeatedly.</p>

<p id="EN-US_TOPIC_0109822378__p27207106">An external image file is a template that can be used to create ECSs or BMSs. The template provides information required to create the servers, including the OS and pre-installed applications.</p>
