Bare-metal provisioning tools speak a language that virtual machines simply don't understand: IPMI and Redfish, the protocols of physical Baseboard Management Controllers (BMCs). Yet in today's cloud-native landscape, there's a very real need to run those same provisioning workflows against virtualized infrastructure: for development, testing, CI pipelines, and beyond.
In this talk, we'll introduce KubeVirtBMC, an open-source, cloud-native project that gives KubeVirt VMs virtual BMCs, exposing IPMI and Redfish endpoints so that existing bare-metal provisioning stacks, whether cloud-native or not (Metal3, Tinkerbell, Foreman, and others), can interact with virtual infrastructure without any modification. Think of it as the Kubernetes-native counterpart to VirtualBMC, but built from the ground up around the Kubernetes controller pattern.
We'll walk through the architecture, demonstrate a live integration with Metal3/Tinkerbell, and discuss project governance, including lessons learned from navigating the migration into the KubeVirt organization.
