AMI is a leading developer of platform firmware for the Intelligent Platform Management Interface, or IPMI, a widely used technology for entry-level and midrange server management. IPMI provides health monitoring of hardware components such as fans, temperatures and the like, as well as OS-independent access to the server via the system’s existing LAN connection for accessing system information, generating alerts and implementing power on/off, reset and cycle operations from a remote text console.
As an early developer of IPMI firmware, AMI is an ideal OEM partner. The MegaRAC PM IPMI solution is a stable, robust firmware stack with very small footprint, simple and economical to insert in any project. The firmware is highly extensible and customizable. Powerful utilities, like the Platform Management Configuration Program (PMCP) utility, are designed to shorten Time To Market (TTM) and streamline firmware porting on new platforms by enhancing developers’ productivity. PMCP applies a revolutionary methodology based on simple graphical drag-and-drop of the software modules that store the device firmware.
