OpenInfra, governed by the Open Infrastructure Foundation, supports the development and adoption of open infrastructure globally. It hosts open-source projects and communities focused on virtualization, AI/ML, CI/CD, container infrastructure, edge computing, and various other cloud forms. With a community of over 110,000 individuals in 187 countries, its mission is to help people build and operate open infrastructure. Projects like OpenStack, Airship, and Kata Containers embody the “Four Opens” philosophy: Open Source, Open Development, Open Community, and Open Design.

The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) is dedicated to making cloud-native computing ubiquitous. It fosters a global ecosystem for open-source, vendor-neutral projects, enabling organizations to build and run scalable applications in modern environments. CNCF supports projects like Kubernetes and Prometheus, hosts large open-source developer conferences, and is part of the Linux Foundation. It aims to democratize advanced cloud-native technologies, promoting resilience, manageability, and observability in systems through robust automation.

The Linux Foundation is a nonprofit organization that provides a neutral, trusted hub for developers to code, manage, and scale open technology projects. It focuses on fostering innovation through shared technology and community collaboration. By offering support programs for project scaling, enterprise readiness, and ecosystem curation, the Linux Foundation aims to democratize code and accelerate the growth of new technology categories. It also emphasizes diversity and inclusion to drive innovation and community engagement.
