US Patent 9753758 Building of virtual servers in a cloud via non-structured strings

A system for building virtual servers via non-structured strings is disclosed according to an embodiment. The system comprises a build server that is configured by execution of an application on a processor to obtain, from a ticketing system, server design data having non-structured strings. The system determines that the server design data does not designate a primary virtual network interface controller based on the non-structured strings, and isolates, via the non-structured strings, an interface type parameter and an interface alias parameter for each of a plurality of virtual network interface controllers. Responsive to the determination, the system generates an interface metric for each of a plurality of virtual network interface controllers. The primary network interface is automatically determined by the system based on one of the interface metrics corresponding to one of the plurality of virtual network interface controllers.
