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:

    The more intelligent one is, the more men of originality one finds. Ordinary people find no difference between men.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    Across Parker Avenue from the fort is the Site of the Old Gallows, where 83 men “stood on nothin’, a-lookin’ up a rope.” The platform had a trap wide enought to “accommodate” 12 men, but half that number was the highest ever reached. On two occasions six miscreants were executed. There were several groups of five, some quartets and trios.
