DMTF’s Redfish® is a standard 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.

Technical work on the Redfish standard takes place in DMTF's Redfish Forum. For a list of member companies or to take part in the development effort, visit the Join Redfish Forum page.  

Developers: Please Visit the Redfish Developer Hub!

DMTF’s Redfish Developer Hub is 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 you may need to help you use Redfish.

Open Source Projects using DMTF Redfish Technologies

Open Source Project Description of Tool
gofish

Gofish is a Golang library for interacting with DMTF Redfish and SNIA Swordfish enabled devices.

libredfish

libRedfish is a C client library that allows for Creation of Entities (POST), Read of Entities (GET), Update of Entities (PATCH), Deletion of Entities (DELETE), running Actions (POST), receiving events, and providing some basic query abilities. This is a DMTF-led effort.

MCP Server for Redfish

The Redfish MCP Server is a natural language interface designed for agentic applications to efficiently manage infrastructure that exposes Redfish for this purpose.

Python Redfish Library

Python library for interacting with devices which support a Redfish Service. This is a DMTF-led effort.

Python Redfish Utility

DMTF's python-based utility for interacting with devices supporting a Redfish Service. This is a DMTF-led effort.

Python Redfish Utility

Hewlett Packard's Redfish Utility is a command line interface that allows you to manage servers that take advantage of Redfish APIs

Python-Redfish

A Python Redfish library.

RackHD

RackHD to support not only the legacy protocols such as IPMI, but also new Restful interfaces such as DMTF Redfish.

Redfish Interface Emulator

The Redfish Interface Emulator can emulate a Redfish-based interface statically (GET) or dynamically (POST, PATCH, DELETE). This is a DMTF-led effort.

Redfish Interop Validator

The Redfish Interop Validator is a python3 tool that will validate a service based on a profile given to the tool. This is a DMTF-led effort.

A python3.4 program that creates a Redfish Mockup folder structure from a real live Redfish service. This is a DMTF-led effort.

Redfish Mockup Server

A simple Python 3.4 program that can be copied into a folder at the top of any Redfish mockup and can serve Redfish requests on the specified IP/port. This is a DMTF-led effort.

Redfish Profile Simulator

A Flask-based simulator of a Redfish Service implementing the proposed OCP feature Profile. This is a DMTF-led effort.

Redfish Protocol Validator

The Redfish Protocol Validator tests the HTTP protocol behavior of a Redfish service to validate that it conforms to the Redfish specification. This is a DMTF-led effort.

Redfish Reference Checker

RedfishReferenceTool.py is a python3 tool that checks for valid reference URLs in CSDL xml files. This is a DMTF-led effort.

Redfish Service Conformance Checker

This tool checks an operational Redfish Service to see that it conforms to the normative statements from the Redfish specification. This is a DMTF-led effort.

Redfish Service Validator

The Redfish Service Validator is a Python3 tool for checking conformance of any "device" with a Redfish service interface against Redfish CSDL schema. This is a DMTF-led effort.
