Broadly, yes. I'm unsure about AIX, but we can definitely provision most
Linux OSs and Windows (although requires some work, see the wimaging
docs/deepdive/repo for details). Auto-provisiong of new hardware can be set
up via the Discovery plugin. Once a host is built, it can be configured via
Puppet or another configmanagement system (we have plugins for Chef, Salt
and Ansible)

As a newbie, wanted to understand if foreman would help in solving this
use case- Auto provisioning of set of clusters in datacenter (mix of
platforms - linux, unix[ solaris(sparc), aix ] and windows?
After OS provisioning and post customisations , application provisioning
(e.g. oracle, sql, or enterprise app). Help here truly appreciated!
