The Redfish standard is a suite of specifications that deliver an industry standard protocol providing Software Defined Management for Converged infrastructure.
Distributed Management Task Force developed Redfish Standard is a suite of specifications that deliver architectural semantics, industry standard protocols and profiles to unify the management of the data center. Through the development of conformance testing programs, the Redfish Forum will extend these capabilities by helping deliver additional compatibility in cross-platform servers.
History
The Redfish standard has been elaborated under the SPMF umbrella at the DMTF in 2014. The first specification with base models (1.0) was published in August 2015[1]. In 2016, Models for BIOS, disk drives, memory, storage, volume, endpoint, fabric, switch, PCIe device, zone, software/firmware inventory & update, multi-function NICs), host interface (KCS replacement) and privilege mapping were added. In 2017, Models for Composability, Location and errata were added[2]. There is WIP for Telemetry, Ethernet Switching, DCIM, and OCP & Profiles.
In August 2016, SNIA released a first model for network storage services (Swordfish[3]), an extension of the Redfish specification.

Features
Redfish allows the retrieval of hardware data such as asset info, platform identification, firmware versions, health state, temperature, fans, power supplies, power consumption, event logs, CPU, RAM, NIC and storage details,
Redfish allows in addition the modification of a subset of the data it can retrieve such as Boot order, power thresholds, BMC settings and user accounts, and to perform actions such as power cycle/reboot of the system.
It has a large scope for hardware architecture support, managing simple servers, blade enclosures and servers, multi-node servers (such as the HPE Moonshot cartridges), and has been designed to be extendable as needed. It also provides support for private extensions (not yet standardized e.g.) in an Oem schema (similar in function to the private part of the MIB for the SNMP protocol).
It is now used by both proprietary software (such as HPE OneView) as well as FLOSS ones[5]
