The Linux Foundation, besides doing a great job of supporting Linux, has been doing a great job of helping other groups move forward with their own open-source projects. In 2013 alone, the Linux Foundation brought together the AllSeen Alliance for the Internet of things; OpenBEL for open source biological research; OpenDaylight, for almost all the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) companies; and Open Virtualization Alliance, and Xen Project for KVM and Xen virtualization. And, now, the Linux Foundation is joining forces with the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) to advance and support open-source development by co-producing this year’s ApacheCon event.
