Server Deployment
Automated Server Builds
Whether you are involved in implementing an IT infrastructure or developing a large
IT system, there are huge benefits in automating the installation of OS and applications for your servers.
1E has a tried and tested automated build system that has been used for both large project development programs, where developer PCs and development/test server
rigs are regularly rebuilt, and new infrastructure server roll-outs.
Reduce Project Delivery Time & Cost
1E integrates our solutions with Microsoft imaging technologies such as Windows Deployment Services (WDS) and the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit or System Center Configuration Manager 2007. The unique combination of these technologies allows for large-scale server provisioning and administration across the enterprise estate in all environments and phases of the project life-cycle.
Integrating Microsoft Deployment with 1E solutions
Integrating Microsoft Imaging solutions and 1E software tools and know-how, allows you to deploy customized OS builds onto bare metal servers or to rebuild existing servers with new OS images, and then provide the granularity of tasks to configure each server to its exact specification for its intended role or application. Set dependencies between specific tasks and other servers allow for complete environment builds to be totally automated and delivered without human intervention or the potential of introduction of errors.
The 1E Automated Build Solution Advantage:
- 1E consultants have many years of experience of automated builds for complex server environments and have adapted and extended this toolset to new technologies and Windows operating systems as they’ve evolved.
- Leveraging the standard Windows Image Format (WIM), Microsoft tools and best practice guidance provides forward and backward compatibility with Windows Server 2003/2008 for future-proofing.
- The addition of scripts provides in-depth error checking, allowing a high level of confidence that each server is built as specified, fully automated and base lined. This can include version checking and build validation plus integrated change control.
- Our solutions can deal with tough scenarios, such as network teaming and SQL clustering setup so that inter-connected environments can be built entirely with the necessary inter-dependence for even the most complex server deployment needs.
