The Open Connectivity Foundation was originally called the Open Interconnect Foundation but changed its name in 2016 to the OCF after the separation of Samsung from the working group and the addition of new members. For several years it was a separate entity from the Allseen Alliance, but in 2016 both organizations merged. Their combined charter is to build interoperability platforms for consumers, businesses, and industries through standards, frameworks, and a certification program under the name Open Connectivity Foundation. It spans multiple segments: automotive, consumer electronics, enterprise, healthcare, home automation, industrial, and wearables. Their frameworks are most famous for the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) specification and now the IoTivity and AllJoyn connectivity framework. They use the Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) licensing model that is meant to be functionally equivalent to BSD. There are five levels of membership with varying degrees on yearly dues. The basic membership is free to all and grants access to test tools and read-only rights to specifications. There is a non-profit educational level that grants such organizations access to working groups and certification. Above that are the gold, platinum, and diamond levels, each with varying degrees of access from working group participation to board membership.
