- User provisioning is the process of granting users access rights and authorization privileges for accessing email, databases, networks, and other IT services.
- Network provisioning includes setting up a network to be accessed by users, servers, containers, and devices.
- Service provisioning includes the setup of a service and managing the data related to it.
