Open source and standards have long been a hallmark of the HPC community. Each encourages broad industry participation, wide-ranging collaboration, and a thriving ecosystem with a common goal of robust, interoperable solutions. Key to the success of standards and open source is a stable, neutral governance and support structure. Two new unrelated industry efforts (Apptainer evolving under the auspices of the Open Linux Foundation and DMTCP establishing a public/private open-source partnership) have been embraced by the HPC community to strengthen the standards and open source activities of the HPC ecosystem.
