👉 The Open Container Initiative (OCI) is a non-profit organization dedicated to standardizing container technologies, particularly focusing on the Open Container Initiative (OCI) specifications. These specifications aim to ensure interoperability and portability across different container runtimes, such as Docker and containerd. By promoting these standards, OCI enables developers to create containerized applications that can run consistently across various environments and platforms, reducing the "it works on my machine" problem. OCI's efforts include defining container formats, runtime interfaces, and orchestration tools, fostering a more unified and efficient container ecosystem.
