Abstract
A system, operating on a first computerized device, deploys an agent to a second computerized device. The agent, operating on the second computerized device, obtains the configuration data. The system receives, at the first computerized device, from the agent operating on the second computerized device, configuration data specific to the second computerized device. The system creates software for the second computerized device utilizing the configuration data. The software is customized based on the configuration data specific to the second computerized device. The system then deploys the software to the second computerized device for operation on the second computerized device.
