OpenFabrics Alliance – Innovation in High Speed Fabrics

Who Is the OpenFabrics Alliance

OpenFabrics Alliance (OFA) mission is to accelerate the development and adoption of advanced fabrics for the benefit of the advanced networks ecosystem, which is accomplished by; creating opportunities for collaboration among those who develop and deploy such fabrics, incubating and evolving vendor independent open source software for fabrics, and supporting and promoting the use of such fabric technology software.

OFA Workshop

The annual OFA Workshop is a premier means of fostering collaboration among those who develop fabrics, deploy fabrics, and create applications that rely on fabrics. Learn more.

Working Groups

The OFA hosts many working groups for developers and users interested in advancing and deploying Advanced Networks Software. Get involved with other professionals and stay informed about what the groups are doing.

Fabric Software Development Platform (FSDP)

The FSDP is a vendor-neutral matrix test cluster owned and maintained by the OFA for the benefit of its members to develop, test, and validate new and existing network technologies. FSDP offers OFA members an opportunity for serious cost reduction in testing, validation, and development, and provides an invaluable service to the open source community of maintainers as they support open source networking software integration.

Sunfish™

Sunfish (formerly OpenFabrics Management Framework—OFMF) is an extensible, open source fabric management framework developed by the OFA for comprehensive management of servers, storage and fabrics. Sunfish provides access to high-performance fabric management interfaces and services.
