Forum Description
The Redfish Forum, formerly known as the Scalable Platforms Management Forum (SPMF), is responsible for the DMTF’s Redfish®. A standard, Redfish is designed to deliver simple and secure management for converged, hybrid IT and the Software Defined Data Center (SDDC). Both human readable and machine capable, Redfish leverages common Internet and web services standards to expose information directly to the modern tool chain.
The Redfish Forum also maintains the Redfish Developer Hub, a one-stop, in-depth technical resource – by developers, for developers – designed to provide all the files, tools, community support, tutorials and other advanced education developers need to use Redfish.
Get Involved:
- The Redfish Forum develops the Redfish Standard.
- Participation in this group is one of the benefits of membership of the DMTF’s Redfish Forum. Learn more about the Refish Forum and join to contribute to this standard.
- DMTF welcomes feedback on our standards, but requires that individuals submitting comments first agree to our DMTF Feedback Policy.
