Ironic
======
Ironic is an Incubated OpenStack project which aims to provision
bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the
Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal
hypervisor **API** and a set of plugins which interact with
the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI
in concert to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic
also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional
functionality.

Introduction
============
Ironic is an Incubated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare
metal (as opposed to virtual) machines by leveraging common technologies such
as PXE boot and IPMI to cover a wide range of hardware, while supporting
pluggable drivers to allow vendor-specific functionality to be added.

If one thinks of traditional hypervisor functionality (eg, creating a VM,

together multiple drivers, each of which implement some portion of that
functionality with respect to physical hardware.
Ironic should be considered Beta quality as of the Icehouse release, and will
make the best effort to maintain backwards compatibility from this point
forward. Release notes are available here:
