Ceph Foundation
The Ceph Foundation exists to enable industry members to collaborate and pool resources to support the Ceph project community. The Foundation provides an open, collaborative, and neutral home for project stakeholders to coordinate their development and community investments in the Ceph ecosystem.
The Ceph Foundation is organized as a directed fund under the Linux Foundation. Premier and General Member organizations contribute a yearly fee to become members. Associate members are educational institutions or government organizations and are invited to join at no cost.

Establishing ad-hoc committees to address current needs of the project
Coordinating outreach or marketing
Meeting regularly to discuss Foundation activities, the status of the Ceph project, and overall project strategy
Voting on any decisions or matters before the board
The Ceph Foundation board is not responsible for and does not have any direct control over the technical governance of Ceph. Development and engineering activities are managed through traditional open source processes and are overseen by the Ceph Steering Committee. For more information see Governance.
