============================================
Welcome to Ironic's developer documentation!
============================================
Introduction
============
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.
If one thinks of traditional hypervisor functionality (eg, creating a VM,
enumerating virtual devices, managing the power state, loading an OS onto the
VM, and so on), then Ironic may be thought of as a *hypervisor API* gluing
together multiple drivers, each of which implement some portion of that
functionality with respect to physical hardware.
The developer documentation provided here is continually kept up-to-date based
on the latest code, and may not represent the state of the project at any
specific prior release.
