About Us
The OpenFabrics Alliance develops transport agnostic open source software for RDMA fabric technologies. Founded in June 2004 as the OpenIB Alliance to develop a Linux-based InfiniBand software stack, the organization has expanded its charter to support iWARP (RDMA over Ethernet). The OpenFabrics Alliance provides tools, communications and resources for vendors and developers to create, refine and publish standard open source software stacks for RDMA capable data center fabrics. It is comprised of technology vendors and end-user organizations. For the list of member companies, go here.

On this site you will find the latest information, updates, and downloads to the open-source InfiniBand(IB) and RDMA fabric technologies. As well as:

The goal of the organization is to develop InfiniBand and transport agnostic software stacks that are high performance, scalable, and interoperable, while reducing deployment time. By emphasizing an open-development environment, we hope to encourage community participation and focus on getting the stacks into the 2.6 Linux kernel tree and into the various Linux distributions.
