IPMI is Dead, Long Live Redfish
summary
Redfish claims to replace IPMI with a standards‑driven RESTful API (JSON/XML/OData), first published 2015 with a working group from 2014 and incremental releases roughly three times a year. Implementations include HPE iLO, OpenBMC and vendor OEM extensions; tools demonstrated are DMTF mockups and simulators, validation suites, python-redfish and sushi simulators, OpenStack Ironic integration and an Ansible module. New features include a telemetry service for bulk metrics to avoid constant BMC polling and OpenAPI/SDL generation for auto‑generated clients and servers.
