The Platform for Provisioning Quantities of Devices in about half the time, half the effort and half the cost
Provisioner™ automates operating-system and applications installation across servers, PCs, and IoT/Edge devices through a secure, cloud-orchestrated Just-in-Time Provisioning™ model.
Say goodbye to static images, outdated builds, or manual installation workflows
A Modern Way to Provision Devices
Provisioner™ replaces imaging, OEM pre-loads, and manual setup with a cloud-driven approach that installs the latest OS, firmware, drivers, and applications ner or when a device is deployed.
This means:
- Every system boots current, verified, and secure
- No drift or stale images
- Zero pre-shared credentials
- Massive parallel provisioning at any scale
- Full visibility and auditability across your entire fleet
Provisioner’s 3 SaaS Pillars
Provisioner BootBOX™
Secure Edge Boot Appliance
BootBOX™ is a plug-and-play hardware or virtual appliance that securely boots and provisions devices with complete OS and applications stacks.
- Secure local execution
- PXE, network, and USB booting
- Works online or air-gapped
- Automatic authentication with the cloud
Provisioner Management Portal™
Cloud-Based Orchestration
The Management Portal is the cloud control plane for the entire Provisioner ecosystem. It automatically discovers devices, assigns Recipes, and monitors provisioning activity globally.
- Central dashboard
- Automated Waiting Room
- Versioned ProvisionerRecipes™
- APIs for DevOps & ITSM integration
Provisioner Accelerators™
High-Speed Caching & Parallel Deployment
Accelerators™ caches OS builds and applications packages close to the deployment site, enabling high-volume, parallel provisioning without crushing your bandwidth.
- Local caching
- Scales from edge sites to full racks
- Ideal for distributed or low-bandwidth locations

How Provisioner Works
Traditional Provisioning Methods
OEM pre-loads, third-party imaging, and in-house installations all share the same fundamental challenges: delays, human dependency, version drift, and security risk.
Provisioner™ replaces these outdated processes with a SaaS-driven, Just-in-Time Provisioning™ model that installs operating systems, firmware, and applications near or when a device is deployed ensuring each build is current, verified, and securely orchestrated from the cloud.
No static images. No pre-shared keys. No repetitive update cycles after shipping, warehousing, on-prem inventory, staging area, etc.
OEM Pre-Loads
Applications and operating systems are installed by the OEM (server, PC, or IoT manufacturer) before hardware ships to the customer.
Common Implications
- Outdated before arrival: Systems may sit in inventory or transit for weeks, leaving pre-installed software obsolete and unpatched at first boot.
- Security exposure: Pre-loaded images can contain vulnerabilities discovered after the image was created.
- Version inconsistency: Each SKU requires its own image, creating drift and maintenance overhead.
- Hidden costs: OEMs charge for image creation, testing, and long-term maintenance, often without transparency.
Third-Party Provisioning
External service providers perform imaging or software installation on behalf of customers using pre-defined configurations.
Common Implications
- Delays and coordination overhead: Frequent back-and-forth validation slows delivery.
- Added labor cost: Providers bill for setup, testing, and transport time.
- Limited visibility: Customers rarely see how credentials are stored or managed within the provider’s infrastructure.
- No real-time updates: Builds may already be outdated by the time devices reach production.
In-House Provisioning
IT teams manually install and configure operating systems and applications after hardware arrives.
Common Implications
- Resource drain: Skilled staff spend hours on repetitive setup instead of higher-value projects.
- Inconsistent results: Human error and environment variations introduce configuration drift.
- Poor scalability: Onboarding hundreds or thousands of devices requires staging areas, manual testing, and constant rework.
- Hidden operational costs: Space, energy, and time add up but are rarely tracked or optimized.
Local USB/PXE Imaging
Manual or semi-automated installations performed directly on each device using USB drives, PXE servers, or other local media.
Common Implications
- Time-intensive: Each machine must be individually touched, updated, and verified.
- Error-prone: Local media often becomes outdated or inconsistent.
- Limited visibility: No centralized monitoring or automation across the fleet.
- Insecure workflow: Devices frequently connect to unverified networks or reuse shared credentials during setup.
Post-Build Updates
After devices are delivered, IT must bring each system current with the latest operating system and application updates.
Common Implications
- Multiple update cycles: Devices may be updated repeatedly by OEMs, distributors, and customers — consuming time and bandwidth.
- Operational overhead: Continuous patching consumes staff hours and slows deployment.
- Delayed production: Systems remain offline until updates complete.
- Version drift: Devices enter production with inconsistent patch levels and configurations.
