Abstract
Certain aspects direct to systems and methods for cloud based platform simulation on virtual machine for development projects of a management controller. The system includes a cloud network, which include necessary computing resources to provide at least one virtual machine (VM), such that the at least one VM is accessible on the cloud network to simulate a management controller and a host computing device for the management controller. The at least one VM includes: a firmware module for the management controller, configured to receive at least one output signal from the host computing device; and a simulator module configured to simulate the host computing device. In operation, the simulator module generates the at least one output signal based on configuration data of the host computing device, and sends the at least one output signal to the firmware module.
