Minimal Service Provisioning Environment
This section describes components of the minimal service provisioning environment. The advantages of deploying such a configuration are that you can:
Get up-and-running quickly with little or no investment in technology ramp-up time.
Acquire a fully functional provisioning system with the simplicity of a basic configuration that has lower administrative costs.
Use automation to streamline multiple-step provisioning processes within your data center.
Use the Microsoft Provisioning System (MPS) Deployment Tool, which is a single installation application, to automate the deployment and configuration of all MPS components while minimizing the occurrence of errors.
Take advantage of provided sample XML requests to initiate some common provisioning tasks.
Have a fully functional provisioning environment that you can extend with customized provisioning solutions after you acquire more familiarity with MPS functions.
