Open Connectivity Foundation

The Open Connectivity Foundation (OCF) is a global organization that develops and promotes standards for Internet of Things (IoT) devices, ensuring they can communicate and work together seamlessly. Think of it as creating a common language for smart devices—like lights, thermostats, and security cameras—so they can connect, share information, and be controlled easily, regardless of the manufacturer. This interoperability makes smart homes and buildings more convenient, reliable, and secure by enabling devices to operate smoothly as part of an integrated system.
