Abstract
An interposer card and a virtualization offloading card are provided for installation in a third-party server to integrate the third-party server into a cloud service provider network. The interposer card includes a baseboard management controller that interfaces with a management console of the cloud service provider network. This allows the third-party server to be converted into a server controlled by the cloud service provider network. Additionally, the baseboard management controller of the interposer card acts as a firewall between the third-party server and a management control network of the cloud service provider network. The interposer card and the virtualization offloading card are installed in a chassis of the third-party server via an expansion slot without requiring modification of the hardware or firmware of the third-party server.
