The api documentation is now published on docs.openstack.org instead of developer.openstack.org. Update all links that are changed to the new location. Note that redirects will be set up as well but let's point now to the new location.

Welcome to Ironic's documentation!
Introduction
Ironic is an OpenStack project which provisions bare metal (as opposed to virtual) machines. It may be used independently or as part of an OpenStack Cloud, and integrates with the OpenStack Identity (keystone), Compute (nova), Network (neutron), Image (glance), and Object (swift) services.
The Bare Metal service manages hardware through both common (eg. PXE and IPMI) and vendor-specific remote management protocols. It provides the cloud operator with a unified interface to a heterogeneous fleet of servers while also providing the Compute service with an interface that allows physical servers to be managed as though they were virtual machines.
This documentation is continually updated and may not represent the
state of the project at any specific prior release. To access
documentation for a previous release of ironic, append the OpenStack
release name to the URL; for example, the ocata
release is
available at https://docs.openstack.org/ironic/ocata/.
