Abstract: Automation of Infrastructure as a Service (laaS) is provisioned by utilizing a graphical user interface (GUI) coupled with elements of intelligence using question and answer method which provides a self-guided approach to automate the provisioning of Infrastructure as a Service (laaS) hardware. The Infrastructure as a Service (laaS) of the present invention comprising three modules; a user interface module (104) for automating provisioning of Infrastructure as a Service (laaS) using question and answer as self-guided approach; a Provisioning Engine module (108) for parsing information of users layout and translating said information into necessary configuration; and a Auto Discovery Engine module (106) for locating available servers based on information provided into the at least one user interface module. The said modules are supported by a Layout Storage (114) for storing users' layout and an Operating System Repository (116) for providing users information on operating systems for assignment of nodes. The said modules are further supported by a Vendor Registry (112) and supporting services such as the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol), Web Server and DNS (Domain Name System) services and are further linked to a Server Management Network.
