3. This session is about...
The simple story behind this session is that server deployment is still far, far from automated in a way that can and should be done. There are free toolkits (MDT & MAP) that could help you. This is true for both physical servers, and virtual servers. Have a seat and enjoy the ride...

4. Things have changed From flat file to WIM file
From a bunch of text files to unattend.xml
From ”Thats not supported” to ”How do you want to do this?”

Act as ”glue” to make all the native tools to work
MDT + WDS = LiteTouch
