Redfish

Exivity supports integration with Redfish-compatible infrastructure, helping organizations incorporate physical infrastructure data into their broader technology cost and consumption model.

Redfish provides a standardized API for managing and retrieving information from physical infrastructure such as servers and other data center hardware. Through Exivity's flexible data extraction capabilities, relevant infrastructure data can be collected, transformed, and combined with other technology consumption and business information.

This enables organizations to include physical infrastructure alongside virtual machines, private cloud, containers, public cloud, SaaS, and other services when calculating and allocating technology costs.

Exivity can enrich the collected data with information such as customers, departments, services, contracts, and organizational structures before applying custom rates and business rules. This provides a foundation for infrastructure cost allocation, showback, chargeback, and usage-based billing.

For organizations operating private, sovereign, hybrid, or data center environments, Redfish support helps extend FinOps beyond public cloud billing. Instead of analyzing cloud expenditure in isolation, organizations can build a more complete view of the resources and infrastructure required to deliver their services.

Exivity's data-source-agnostic extraction framework supports REST APIs, files, databases, and other HTTP/S sources, allowing infrastructure data to become part of the same cost and billing model as other IT resources.
