Open Compute Project has major backers. It's taken on the business models of the data center, network and telecom equipment industries. Next: chips.

It got its start late last year, but was snatched up mere months later to join the OCP — which is the blanket organization that managed many of these kinds of open hardware projects.

The idea for ODSA and this new way to build chips came about when"a bunch of engineers at a very large company were complaining," recounts project leader Bapi Vinnakota. The engineers began to wish they could stop redesigning every single new graphics or CPU chip from scratch, and just focus on the real point of their work — to create a new part of the chip that would be optimized for specific tasks, like processing AI requests or analyzing video.

Today, the project includes engineers from processor giants like Samsung and NXP who have a lot to lose if this new way of making chips takes off and they don't get a piece of the action.
