DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Nnamdi Ajah\, Cloudflare\n\nAt web-scale\, managing 
 UEFI configurations across thousands of globally distributed servers from 
 multiple vendors is operationally complex. Inconsistent interfaces\, undoc
 umented settings\, and different tooling from different vendors lead to in
 efficiencies and toil. Additionally\, Redfish support is often inconsisten
 t across many UEFI firmware implementations. To address these issues\, a v
 endor-neutral tool was developed that can run in either EFI or iPXE shells
  and integrates with existing configuration management systems like Salt\,
  thus enabling standardized\, seamless\, large-scale UEFI configuration. T
 his approach improves fleet-wide consistency\, reduces human error\, remov
 es the need for vendor turnaround to implement settings\, and eliminates t
 he need for vendor-specific knowledge—allowing teams to manage firmware 
 settings reliably and efficiently across diverse hardware\, from a single 
 interface.
