Goals

The goals of the OpenSAF project are to:

  • Create an open source reference implementation of a high availability operating environment which includes the SA Forum Application Interface Specification (AIS)
  • Develop necessary additional complementary services necessary to deploy and manage the software
  • Accelerate the development of SA Forum specifications by proposing enhancements implemented in the OpenSAF project
  • Establish a broadly adopted high availability operating environment that can be leveraged by computing technology companies, network equipment providers, and other industries requiring high availability, and independent software vendors
  • Utilize an open source licensing model not tied to any commercial implementation

Famous quotes containing the word goals:

    Despicable means used to achieve laudable goals renders the goals themselves despicable.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    We cannot discuss the state of our minorities until we first have some sense of what we are, who we are, what our goals are, and what we take life to be. The question is not what we can do now for the hypothetical Mexican, the hypothetical Negro. The question is what we really want out of life, for ourselves, what we think is real.
    James Baldwin (1924–1987)

    We should stop looking to law to provide the final answer.... Law cannot save us from ourselves.... We have to go out and try to accomplish our goals and resolve disagreements by doing what we think is right. That energy and resourcefulness, not millions of legal cubicles, is what was great about America. Let judgment and personal conviction be important again.
    Philip K. Howard, U.S. lawyer. The Death of Common Sense: How Law Is Suffocating America, pp. 186-87, Random House (1994)
