Intelligent Platform Management Interface

The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) is a standardized computer system interface used by system administrators for out-of-band management of computer systems and monitoring of their operation.

The development of this interface specification was led by Intel Corporation and is supported by more than two hundred computer systems vendors. Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, and NEC Corporation announced IPMI v1.0 on 1998-09-16, v1.5 on 2001-03-01, and v2.0 on 2004-02-14.

Famous quotes containing the words intelligent, platform and/or management:

    I come more and more to the conclusion that one must take the side of the minority which is always the more intelligent one.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    It was a favor for which to be forever silent to be shown this vision. The earth beneath had become such a flitting thing of lights and shadows as the clouds had been before. It was not merely veiled to me, but it had passed away like the phantom of a shadow, skias onar, and this new platform was gained. As I had climbed above storm and cloud, so by successive days’ journeys I might reach the region of eternal day, beyond the tapering shadow of the earth.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The management of fertility is one of the most important functions of adulthood.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
