Besides being the leader of the Lost Boys after Peter Pan left Neverland, Rufio is a kubernetes controller for managing baseboard management controllers (BMC) in a Tinkerbell context. Rufio can also execute jobs to perform a set of one-off management actions to bring a machine (physical hardware) to a desired state.
## Architecture
Rufio controller consists of three main API types, [Machine](api/v1alpha1/machine.go), [Job](api/v1alpha1/job.go) and [Task](api/v1alpha1/task.go). An operator or an automated client like [CAPT](https://github.com/tinkerbell/cluster-api-provider-tinkerbell) can interact with Rufio using these APIs to manage the state of their physical machines.

### Machine API
The Machine type contains the information required for communicating with the BMC of the physical hardware.
