Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving, via a web portal connection to an integrated provisioning system, parameters input by a user associated with a request for network resources, an identified number of virtual machines, and an identified number of physical server devices on a network; transforming the input parameters into one or more network parameter values for access by the integrated provisioning system; determining, based on the identified number of virtual machines and the identified number of physical server devices, that sufficient network capacity exists to provision the requested network resources; creating, by the integrated provisioning system, based on the one or more network parameter values and without manual intervention, at least one virtual machine on at least a first physical server device in response to determining that sufficient network capacity exists to provision the requested network resources, wherein the creating includes: configuring, by the integrated provisioning system, based on the one or more network parameter values and without manual intervention, at least a second physical server device in response to determining that sufficient network capacity exists to provision the requested network resources, wherein the configuring includes: sending provisioning-related information to the web portal connection, to notify the user that the second physical server device has been provisioned.
