    From Projects to Outcomes: Evolving the OCP Member Experience

    As the Open Compute Project continues to grow and diversify, our role is more than managing projects, it’s fostering an experience that helps members thrive across technical and business goals.  The focus of OCP remains open participation and collaboration. But with the investment our members make, they also need to see outcomes. This has never been more important than with the new requirements in the hardware ecosystems and the rush to support AI workloads. Our Community grows through the strength of our member’s contributions, our knowledge sharing through events, webinars and virtual workshops, and the opportunity to shape the future of computational infrastructure through open standardization.  Though each of these programs can be great, the value is not in just selecting one, it's in the journey for our members, provided by the framework for a thriving open community.  Connect with the OCP Podcast: Join our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/opencompute/ Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/OpenComputePrj Join our LinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4152886/ Follow our Linkedin Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/company/4284419/ #OpenComputeProject #OCP #InfrastructureInnovation #OpenHardware #DataCenters #TechLeadership #Podcast

    Humble Beginnings to Now: An interview with Bill Carter, Fellow Emeritus of the OCP Foundation

    In this special episode of the Open Compute Project Podcast, host Rob Coyle sits down with Bill Carter, Fellow Emeritus and former CTO of the OCP Foundation, for a deep and personal conversation spanning the entire history of OCP — from its scrappy beginnings to its position today as a force in global infrastructure innovation. Highlights Include: * The Birth of OCP: How Facebook, Intel, and Rackspace sparked a hardware revolution in a curtained-off corner of a San Jose colo. * Vanity-Free Computing: The story behind the radical idea that simplicity, not flash, drives scale. * Rack to Reality: The evolution of Open Rack — from triple-bus bar designs to a global standard reshaped by collaboration. * White Box Networking Breakthroughs: Why disaggregated switches became one of OCP’s most disruptive contributions. * Collaboration Over Competition: The unlikely alliances between rivals like Intel and AMD that propelled early specs like Decathlete and Roadrunner. * Specs That Stuck — and Some That Didn't: Bill breaks down the difference between thriving standards and those that fell flat. * OCP’s Global Footprint: What Europe and Asia bring to the future of open hardware, sustainability, and sovereign tech. * What’s Next: Lessons from the past and a look forward at where OCP is headed — especially in the AI, modular, and liquid-cooled future. Whether you're new to open hardware or a long-time community member, this is a must-listen look at how open collaboration can reshape an entire industry — told by someone who helped build it.
