Ironic is an OpenStack project which provisions 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.
OpenStack’s Ironic project makes physical servers as easy to provision as virtual machines in a cloud, which in turn will open up new avenues for enterprises and service providers.
