The Open Compute Project Foundation (OCP), is a collaborative community focused on redesigning hardware technology to efficiently support the growing demands on compute infrastructure. Their mission, to apply the benefits of open-source collaboration to hardware and increase innovation, breaks away from the idea of proprietary IT infrastructure and enables greater choice, customisation, and cost savings.

A decade has now elapsed since the creation of the Open Networking Foundation (ONF) and the Open Compute Project (OCP). The establishment of these two organizations, and the communities that spawned from within, has led to a complete reshaping of the data center market, and more recently, with the addition of the Telecom Infra Project, the telecoms industry.
