The SODA Foundation and Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) have entered into a marketing alliance to move towards a common goal of increasing education for a unified framework and standardisation for data and storage management. The SODA Foundation is an open source project under the Linux Foundation that seeks to foster an ecosystem of open source data management and storage software for data autonomy. SNIA works towards developing standards and education programs to advance storage and information technology.

Steven Tan, VP & CTO, Futurewei and SODA Foundation Chair said, “Working with SNIA in a marketing capacity is an ideal stepping stone to combining our expertise for the advancement of storage management technology. Together, we will contribute to creating a more engaged and informed developer ecosystem and emphasize the importance of the standardisation of storage management APIs.”
