AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This technology allows automatic deployment systems (APS) to communicate directly with agents located physically near their location or connected through communication networks like LANs. These agents can control everything from server computers to router machines without having them take up too much space. They also verify if any changes made during installation work were done correctly before sending it back home.

Problems solved by technology

Technologies described involve providing tools called scripts (a program) through communication networks between clients and servers, allowing them to execute certain tasks autonomously without requiring constant updates during maintenance cycles. Additionally, existing methods like installing new versions of client files based upon predicates applied to default conditions cannot adapt dynamically according to changes caused by varying demands placed within the service itself. Therefore, technical solutions aim to create a flexible platform capable of supporting diverse networking resources including internet connections, email retrieval, file upload capabilities, and media streaming capabilities.

Embodiment Construction

[0029]To facilitate an understanding of the principles of the present invention, it is described hereinafter with reference to its application in the provisioning of devices that support web site operations, such as servers, load balancers, firewalls, and the like. Further in this regard, such description is provided in the context of a data center, which typically accommodates the infrastructure to support a large number of different web sites, each of which may have a different configuration for its infrastructure. It will be appreciated, however, that the implementation of the invention that is described hereinafter is merely exemplary, and that the invention can find practical application in any environment where the automated provisioning of computer resources is desirable. Thus, for example, the principles which underlie the invention can be employed to provision computing devices in the networks of an enterprise, or in any other situation in which there are a sufficient number o

Abstract

A framework for automatically provisioning computing devices includes a central database system and a central file system. Information stored in the database comprises a model of the individual devices, as well as the interconnections of the devices. The central file system stores the software components to be installed on the devices. When provisioning is carried out, the database sends commands to agents located on each device which cause them to retrieve and install the software components from the file system, and to configure the components according to the stored model.
