Lots of these machines are dynamically created and provisioned depending on load factors nowadays.

The days of manually setting up servers in hyperscaling-environments are long long gone.

Example: Your GitLab CICD needs Runners. They are dynamically requested "somewhere in our cloud somwhere in the world" and then spun up and configures fully automatically. No human touches this stuff anymore.
