Ironic itself is cool, it works well with TripleO, Nova, Kolla, etc. Mogan just want to be another client to schedule workloards on Ironic and provide bare metal specific APIs for users who seeks a way to provider virtual machines and bare metals separately, or just bare metal cloud without interoperble with other compute resources under Nova.[...]The short explanation which clicked for me (granted it's probably an oversimplification, but still) was this: Ironic provides an admin API for managing bare metal resources, while Mogan gives you a user API (suitable for public cloud use cases) to your Ironic backend. I suppose it could have been implemented in Ironic, but implementing it separately allows Ironic to be agnostic to multiple user frontends and also frees the Ironic team up from having to take on yet more work directly.
ditto! I had a similar question at the PTG and this was the answer that convinced be may be worth the effort. Flavio -- @flaper87 Flavio Percoco
