1、OpenBMC port to the RL300A CSP/Vendor perspectiveDeployments OpenBMC port to the RL300 A CSP/Vendor perspectiveElyes Zekri,Engineering Manager ScalewayJean-Marie Verdun,Distinguished Technologist GOEWho is Scaleway?A European cloud provider,founded in 1999.The most complete cloud ecosystem in Europe

2、Multi-AZ redundancy and native tools to architecture across multiple cloudsOperates sustainable data centers in France,the Netherlands and Poland100%powered by renewable energyDC5(PUE:1.15)uses free&adiabatic cooling only(no AC)Priority:minimize impact,maximize savingsThe cloud of choice:where data

6、g very challenging but power consumption and cooling data is not always exposed as expected need to have a customizable way to control and monitor power and cooling at the chassis level from the FWOpenBMC could be THE appropriate answer to address these needsScaleway-HPE collaborationHPE provided a
