During Marketplace App deployment, some application settings must be configured dynamically — for example username, password, database name, or site URL for a WordPress or PostgreSQL image.

Marketplace apps are VM templates with pre-installed applications. The service provider prepares the image (OS + application) so end users can deploy a ready-to-use app without installing software manually.

Marketplace Apps usually rely on an administrator startup script on the template. Customers may also enter their own startup script at deploy time. Both are combined into UserData sent to CloudStack, so size limits must be aligned.
