Overview
IronCore bridges the gap between virtualized infrastructure and physical hardware management, offering a unified solution for developers, system administrators, and enterprises. Explore the two core layers below to see how IronCore can transform your workflows.
IronCore Architecture
Here's a visual representation of IronCore's two layers. The bare metal management and network automation layers belong to the infrastructure management domain, while the IaaS layer provides cloud-like capabilities on top.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
The IaaS layer provides a flexible, user-friendly environment to create and manage Compute, Networking, and Storage resources. With IronCore, you can:
- Compute: Spin up virtual machines or containers tailored to your workload needs.
- Networking: Configure virtual networks, load balancers, and firewalls with ease.
- Storage: Provision scalable block, object, or file storage to suit your applications.
Designed for simplicity and power, this layer abstracts the complexity of resource management, giving you cloud-like control at your fingertips.
Bare Metal Management
The Bare Metal Management layer takes server management to the next level, handling everything from provisioning to ongoing maintenance. Key features include:
- Server Provisioning: Automate the discovery, configuration, and deployment of bare metal servers.
- Day 2 Operations: Simplify maintenance tasks like OS updates, BIOS/firmware upgrades, and hardware diagnostics.
- Lifecycle Management: Monitor and manage server health, ensuring peak performance and reliability.
This layer is perfect for those who need fine-grained control over physical hardware without sacrificing automation.

Network Automation
The Network Automation layer streamlines the management of network devices and configurations. It offers:
- Network Device Provisioning: Automatically discover and provision network devices across your infrastructure.
- Day 2 Operations: Manage configurations, updates, and compliance for network devices.
- Lifecycle Management: Monitor network device health and performance to ensure optimal operation.
This layer is ideal for network administrators looking to automate and simplify network management tasks.
