1. A system for provisioning digital engineering services, comprising:
a memory that stores executable components; and
a processor, operatively coupled to the memory, that executes the executable components, the executable components comprising:
image registries configured to store, on a cloud platform, virtual machine images that are configured with respective industrial engineering applications, wherein the image registries are designated to respective different vendors of the industrial engineering applications;
a user interface component configured to receive, from a client device via the cloud platform, a request to utilize an industrial engineering application selected from the industrial engineering applications; and
a provisioning component configured to, in response to receipt of the request, instantiate a virtual machine image, selected from the virtual machine images, on which the industrial engineering application is installed to yield a virtual machine that executes the industrial engineering application on the cloud platform,
wherein the provisioning component is further configured to register a new industrial engineering application submitted to the system by a vendor, of the respective different vendors, in one of the multiple image registries designated to the vendor.
