You didn't specify what OS'es you deploy, but for Linux/Red Hat-like
systems: PXE boot, Kickstart [1], Puppet [2], Bacula [3].
PXE/Kickstart/Puppet can be managed with Cobbler [4].  Foreman [5]
is an alternative for managing Puppet hosts.


Any options that also handle Windows Server?

Spacewalk is the open source upstream of redhat satellite. Can be used
for installation/provisioning and config management. Ties in well with
puppet and func.
