ADB has joined the prpl Foundation, an open source non-profit organization focused on next-generation connected devices. ADB and the prpl Foundation will work together with the open-source software community to build carrier-grade features into home gateways and drive innovation across the connected devices market.
The prpl Foundation has a focus on datacenter-to-device portable software and virtualized architectures, with a specific emphasis on data centers, networking and storage, connected consumers, and embedded IoT. As a new member, ADB will participate in a newly formed Carrier Interest Group, which is intended to ensure that the technical needs of major international carriers are represented across prpl and that potential carrier grade features are defined for open source implementations, such as OpenWrt.
