Microsoft Provisioning System (MPS) server hosting services
Microsoft Provisioning System - MPS consulting and support services
The Service Provisioning component relies on the Microsoft Provisioning System (MPS) to automate routine administrative service management tasks such as adding new users, updating directory entries, and provisioning applications and services. Small and large hosters alike find MPS easy to deploy and integrate into their existing management infrastructure. By using MPS to automate provisioning tasks, you can reduce setup time, mitigate administrative costs, and minimize errors.

The Service Provisioning component provides the following benefits:
Delegated Administration - MPS creates a framework for delegated administration, allowing your customers to create and manage their own resources including databases, e-mail, payment and contact information, and Web sites. By enabling customers to self-provision their accounts, service providers can see a marked reduction in the number of service requests arriving at their call centers.
Fault Tolerance MPS Provides transaction rollback features, a fault tolerant configuration for single point of failure (SPF) protection, a compensation engine to enable rollback in case a failure occurs, and load balancing for provisioning request traffic.
Task Automation The automation of frequent or complex tasks improves accuracy by reducing the amount of human involvement, which reduces the opportunity for human error.
Time Savings Automated provisioning can free development resources to work on revenue-generating projects, such as deployment of new value-added services.
How MPS Works
The diagram below outlines the steps for a typical provisioning task such as setting up a new customer for hosted services.
- Using the Web-based interface, submit a Web service provisioning request.
- The Provisioning Engine parses the Web service request and expands the request into multiple low-level actions. The Provisioning Engine processes the request based on the MPF configuration database.
- The Provisioning Engine then routes the XML requests to the appropriate providers.
- The provider implements the low-level provisioning tasks by making API calls to the appropriate applications. The provisioning request is complete.
