The centralized PXEBoot server is a single point of failure, at least how you presented it.

You also need expertise in DNS/(T)FTP/PXEBoot/hardware/Kubernetes/Puppet/IPMU/KVM/VPN/etc.

It's like that joke about the expert called in to repair expensive factory equipment. He comes in, takes a piece of chalk out of his pocket, marks the piece that should be replaced with an X. A month later they get the bill: $100000. The factory manager wants to see a detailed invoice for that huge expense. They get it 1 week later:

$1 for the piece of chalk

$99999 for the expertise needed to know where to put the X
