Abstract

Systems and methods are provided to facilitate the creation and configuration management of computing systems. According to some embodiments, component and configuration information associated with a computing system to be created is received. In addition, a target hardware platform to be associated with the computing system is determined. Based on the component and configuration information, the target hardware platform, and a pre-defined rule set, build information is automatically determined and made specific for the target hardware platform. It may then be arranged for the computing system to be created and/or configured on the target hardware platform in accordance with the build information.
