    Abstract: Network devices are provisioned using a single vendor-neutral data model with a non-relational database. Provisioning requirements are collected upon detecting a new network device that needs to be configured and/or installed. Based on the provisioning requirements, a configuration object is retrieved using a data model in the non-relational database. The configuration object is transformed to a concrete configuration file for the network device. After applying the configuration file to the network device, a separate process validates the configuration of the network device by comparing the observed network configuration with the initial target configuration data included in the configuration object.
