OpenFastPath (OFP) Foundation aims to create and develop an open source fast path TCP/IP stack, designed to run in Linux user-space. The OFP project is based on the user space FreeBSD implementation and the code is licensed under the BSD 3-Clause License.
The OFP Foundation, created by Nokia Networks, Enea and ARM operates as a nonprofit organization, open to anyone who will participate in the efforts to advance the development of OFP. Among the founders we approach the project from three different perspectives, (1) as an ecosystem builder to allow for a multivendor System on Chip (SoC) solutions, (2) as an Independent Software Vendor (ISV) to provide services based on the OFP code and (3) as an end user, considering OFP in the products.
