Hi, EDK2 community,

Just FYI, base on RedfishPkg which is the EDK2 Redfish foundation, we upstream EDK2 Redfish Client implementation to edk2-staging repo.


In case you don’t know this project, below is the information regarding edk2 Redfish foundation,

https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/RedfishPkg/Readme.md

And the link to the branch of EDK2 Redfish client implementation we just upstream to edk2-staging.

https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-staging/blob/edk2-redfish-client/RedfishClientPkg/Readme.md



The goal of EDK2 Redfish client is to provide an open-source solution for the interoperability of platform BIOS configuration using Redfish. On EDK2, the implementation is to map HII configuration to the standardized Redfish property defined in the Redfish schema. This reduces the OEM proprietary Redfish BIOS properties (BIOS Attribute) which are used to configure the same setting on the platforms produced by different OEMs. This also facilitates having a common server management tool that can configure platform BIOS settings on the different brands of server in out-of-band.

You can take a look at the above links if you are interested in this project, evaluate it, and you are welcome to report the issues or comments.


Thanks and regards,

Abner
