IronCore

IronCore is an open source system for managing compute, storage and networking workloads across providers, exposing a declarative infrastructure-as-a-service API built on Kubernetes API machinery as an aggregated API server. It is software; its standards contribution is the *.ironcore.dev API groups. Apache 2.0, since 2021. Not affiliated with IronCore Labs.

IronCore brings a cloud-style declarative API to bare-metal infrastructure. It is part of NeoNephos, a Linux Foundation Europe project.

  • Kubernetes-native IaaS API - Aggregated API groups compute, core, ipam, networking and storage under ironcore.dev, at v1alpha1.
  • Proposals in the open - Design proposals live in the enhancements repository.
  • Releases - v0.8.0, 24 September 2026.
