AMI Composer® Server Manager

AMI Composer® from AMI is a robust hyperscale node, rack and management ecosystem built around a central framework that delivers core manageability features. Various extensions to the AMI Composer framework add individual manageability capabilities including server, POD and telco cloud infrastructure management, thanks to its compliance with key management specifications like DMTF Redfish® and Intel® Rack Scale Design.

Server Manager is an extension for AMI Composer that provides aggregated management of systems that are equipped with Redfish enabled BMC. It provides complete out of band (OOB) remote management of the system, even if the system is powered off or the operating system is not loaded.
