A Satellite Management Controller (SMC) is a highly specialized, compact management processor equipped with integrated memory, storage, and independent control logic. Deployed within modular and high-density computing environments, particularly under the Open Compute Project (OCP) framework, the SMC serves as a decentralized, local management agent that works in tandem with the primary Baseboard Management Controller (BMC).
