This zip file contains two versions of the Scalable Platform Management API Whitepaper.
The 0.91.0a version is from the original submission by the Redfish organization that covers the basic principles, data model, services and protocol for a RESTful API for out of band systems management. It matches the v0.91 content available on www.redfishspecification.org.
The 0.92.0a version is a revision of the Redfish 0.91.0a submission that reflects changes to the specification and associated artifacts to apply common conventions and markup defined in the OData v4 standard where appropriate. This alignment enables interoperability with the growing ecosystem of OData client applications and tools.
The SPMF is soliciting feedback on both versions of the work product.
