Data defined infrastructure

A data defined infrastructure device for building an environment according to a wrapping workflow, the device comprising:

• a communication interface configured to receive a build request identifying the environment;
• and
• an orchestration engine in communication with the communication interface, the orchestration engine configured to implement the wrapping workflow to:
• receive the build request through the communication interface;
• in response to receiving the build request, determine a determined operational goal for building the environment identified in the build request;
• iteratively retrieve a plurality of component build instructions from a database based on component build instructions included in the determined operational goal;
• and
• determine a particular order for building a plurality of component groups to achieve the determined operational goal based on a component group sequence described by the component build instructions;
• and
• an automation engine configured to:
• implement predefined build features to build the plurality of component groups in the particular order.
