Contributed by Databricks, OpenSharing builds on Delta Sharing and extends it to agentic AI, AI models, and unstructured data.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project offers a unified framework for sharing agent skills, AI models, and unstructured data across different platforms. OpenSharing is a direct evolution of Delta Sharing, the protocol Databricks launched in 2021. While Delta Sharing focused on exchanging structured data, OpenSharing targets the entire AI stack.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-an-end-to-silos-and-proprietary-marketplaces\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">An end to silos and proprietary marketplaces<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As organizations increasingly adopt agentic AI, the lack of a standard exchange protocol has proven to be a stumbling block. Companies were reliant on point-to-point integrations or proprietary marketplaces. OpenSharing ends this by enabling cross-organizational sharing via a single open protocol, without dependence on specific cloud platforms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOpenSharing addresses a critical need for a common, vendor-neutral framework that enables organizations to exchange AI assets securely and interoperably across platforms and ecosystems,\u201d says Jim Zemlin, CEO of the Linux Foundation. \u201cBy bringing this technology to the Linux Foundation, we can foster open collaboration, broad industry participation, and the shared governance needed to accelerate AI innovation at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Databricks co-founder and CTO Matei Zaharia highlights the broader ambition. \u201cDelta Sharing proved the industry would choose open over locked-in,\u201d he states. \u201cOpenSharing extends that principle to the full AI stack, while expanding the cross-platform ecosystem to Iceberg recipients and on-premises providers. The agentic era deserves an open foundation, and OpenSharing delivers it.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-extensive-interoperability-with-apache-iceberg\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extensive interoperability with Apache Iceberg<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A key technical aspect is support for multiple open table formats.
