solved problem

Challenges faced by equipment identification and discovery in large-scale network environments
Batch installation, RAID, update firmware
Bare metal cloudification, self-service, rapid construction of enterprise infrastructure
For big data, smart data center

Technical advantage

Full life cycle: can cover the full life cycle management of bare metal from discovery, shelf, deployment to operation and maintenance;
Automation: Realize workflow automation based on PXE or out-of-band protocol, liberating computer room operation and maintenance personnel;
Easy operation: Visual operation interface, easy to operate and manage.

Component description:

RackShift-WEB: Single page application based on VUE2.6.11
RackShift-Server: SSM-based SpringBoot application, which provides a higher abstraction of RackHD operations and controls interaction with RackHD API, controls RackShift-Proxy nodes, and is packaged together with RackShift-WEB into an application deployment
RackShift-Proxy: It can be deployed separately with the RackHD module. It is mainly used by the master node to control the client node for injection mirroring, DHCP configuration, remote KVM, etc.
RackHD: DELL EMC's open source bare metal supply software, now no longer maintained
Mysql: RackShift-Server main operating data storage area
Mongo: Operating data storage area for RackHD and RackShift-Server
RabbitMQ: middleware for communication between components
DockerEngine: All components are run on node computers as Docker containers
