Understand the architecture, underlying technologies, capabilities, and role of Oniro as a cohesive open platform.
Oniro is a trusted open platform for building connected products. It brings together proven open source technologies, transparent governance, and open collaboration into a cohesive foundation designed for commercial product development.
Hosted by the Eclipse Foundation and developed by a global ecosystem of technology companies, research organizations, and contributors, Oniro addresses the core challenges of connected product development: fragmentation, vendor lock-in, and long-term sustainability.
Rather than reinventing existing solutions, Oniro builds on mature open source projects that have been proven across commercial and community-led deployments. The result is a platform that provides flexibility, interoperability, and the long-term control that organizations need to build products with confidence.

Oniro brings together proven open source technologies into a cohesive platform for connected products. Rather than reinventing existing solutions, it builds on mature projects that provide a strong foundation for long-term innovation.
Oniro is governed by the Eclipse Foundation using established, vendor-neutral governance and intellectual property processes. The Eclipse Foundation's governance model ensures that no single organization can control the platform's direction — decisions are made collaboratively, transparently, and in the interests of the entire ecosystem.
This approach to governance provides long-term stewardship for the platform, protecting the investments made by contributing organizations and ensuring that Oniro remains a neutral, trustworthy foundation for commercial product development.
No single organization controls the platform's direction. Decisions are made collaboratively.
Development happens in the open, with public decision-making and community participation.
Established intellectual property processes protect contributors and commercial adopters alike.
