MyPower is a Python API, using Flask as a framework, that orchestrates provisioning and repave operations for AIX LPARs. MyPower uses a Cockroach DB to track all data associated with these processes, including hosts, host groups, OS technology levels, builds, etc. This DB is fully API-enabled, so that static data within within it can be queried and controlled by makingAPI calls to myPower.
