Dell Servers Plans Pricing
The Dell PowerEdge server management APIs (iDRAC Redfish, Lifecycle Controller, RACADM, WSMan) are firmware-resident interfaces shipped with the server hardware at no additional per-call charge. Some advanced features (e.g. iDRAC Datacenter / iDRAC9 Enterprise tier features, OpenManage Enterprise Power Manager, OpenManage Enterprise Advanced) require a paid iDRAC license tier or an OpenManage Enterprise plug-in license per managed node — those are sold separately by Dell or via channel partners. Dell does not publish a public per-call API price list; the cost is embedded in the hardware purchase plus optional license SKUs.
Dell Servers Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Dell Servers on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.
It defines 3 plans, covering freemium and subscription tiers, with named plans including iDRAC Express (included), iDRAC Enterprise / Datacenter, OpenManage Enterprise.
