🌟 Exciting News in Open Source Collaboration! 🌟 Today, the The Linux Foundation and the Open Infrastructure Foundation (OpenInfra) announced the plan to create a stronger, united open source ecosystem! 🎉 With unanimous approval from both boards, the OpenInfra Foundation has the opportunity to become a member foundation of the Linux Foundation. This partnership would bring together two vibrant global communities, empowering developers, users, and the global ecosystem with trusted open source solutions. By working together, we aim to enhance collaboration and tackle the challenges of an evolving open source landscape. This milestone reflects the shared commitment to innovation, sustainability, and community-driven progress. Let’s celebrate this new chapter in open source history! #OpenSource #LinuxFoundation #OpenInfra #Collaboration #Innovation https://lnkd.in/g77nZk3t

I can’t think of a more poetic story arc Frederic Lardinois ! “This marks my last post for TechCrunch. So long, and thanks for all the fish.”

#OpenInfra is taking the next steps to join The Linux Foundation, marking a new era of collaboration in the open infrastructure space. With collaborations like the Open Infrastructure Blueprint, the partnership aims to bridge the gap between #OpenStack and #CloudNative technologies, driving innovation in the cloud computing world. https://lnkd.in/g6-BB59w TechCrunch, Frederic Lardinois

🚀 Big news for #OpenSource! The OpenInfra Foundation is taking the next step to join forces with The Linux Foundation, strengthening collaboration and innovation across the community. “With projects like #Kubernetes and #OpenStack under their combined umbrella, their reach is unparalleled.” - Randy Bias, Mirantis’ Vice President, Open Source Strategy and Technology https://lnkd.in/gBAh6iu6

Back in 2010, Rackspace and NASA launched a project called OpenStack, which was meant to become an open-source option for running an AWS-style cloud inside of private data centers. The two companies then moved OpenStack to the OpenStack Foundation, which has steadfastly shepherded the project through its many ups and downs. Right now, with the […] © 2024 TechCrunch.

We are excited to announce the OpenInfra Foundation's intent to join the Linux Foundation, uniting our growing, vibrant, and global ecosystems to empower users and developers with trusted open source solutions worldwide. Read the announcement: https://hubs.ly/Q03bvJL90

Today OpenInfra Foundation board announced their intent to join The Linux Foundation ! This is a great opportunity for key open source infrastructure technologies to collaborate even closer together. It also gives us a stronger base to tackle upcoming challenges for all of open source. Jonathan Bryce has a good post further explaining the rationale for this move at https://lnkd.in/dYxaFZXd Onward, together!

The top two business open-source groups, The Linux Foundation and the OpenInfra Foundation, are merging.

Today is an exciting day for the open source movement! The OpenInfra Foundation Board has unanimously agreed to take the next steps in joining forces with The Linux Foundation. As someone who helped create the OpenInfra Foundation (originally the OpenStack Foundation) 15 years ago, I'm thrilled about this natural evolution in open source collaboration. This move doesn't change our core operations - our board, governance model, and community-first approach remain intact. Instead, it aligns us more closely with an ecosystem our users and developers are already deeply engaged with. This decision reflects the changing landscape of open source infrastructure. Today, organizations are combining multiple open source projects like OpenStack, Kubernetes, Linux, PyTorch, and Ceph to build modern, scalable, AI-ready infrastructure. By joining the Linux Foundation, we're positioning ourselves to collaborate more effectively across these technologies and support the evolving needs of the industry. I'm excited about what lies ahead. This isn't just a win for OpenInfra projects - it's a fantastic move for the entire open source ecosystem, ensuring its continued growth and success well into the future. Here's to the next chapter in open source collaboration! #OpenSource #OpenInfra #LinuxFoundation #FutureOfTech Read more: https://lnkd.in/dJbi8yZU

AI is nothing without it's infrastructure, so I'm excited by the idea of OpenStack #katacontainers #starlingx #Zuul coming together with #Linux, Kubernetes PyTorch Ceph and hundreds of other open source projects at The Linux Foundation Open Source is an unstoppable force!
