Julia Kreger 85212fead4 Add note regarding configuration drives to tuning docs
Configuraiton drives get stored in the instance_info field which
is of a text type, which in theory is not a big deal, however large
configuration drives are returned over the database client
and when entire node objects are generated by the client, which
has an obvious bandwidth and record transfer latency overhead.

Overview

Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.

Ironic is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. The full terms and conditions of this license are detailed in the LICENSE file.
