IBM-owned Red Hat Joins Foundation for Developing Open Source RISC-V ISA

Companies like Google, Nvidia, Qualcomm, Western Digital, Samsung and Red Hat' parent company IBM are already members of the foundation.

opensourceforu.com, Aug. 09, 2019 – 

IBM-owned software company Red Hat is the latest major company to join the RISC-V Foundation, a group of companies developing the RISC-V open source instruction set architecture (ISA).

Founded in 2015, the RISC-V Foundation comprises more than 275 member organizations, including large companies like Google, Nvidia, Qualcomm, Western Digital, Samsung and Red Hat' parent company IBM.

By becoming a member of the foundation, Red Hat, agrees to support use of RISC-V chips. But until RISC-V proves to be a clear winner in the specific markets, the company like many other Arm customers, will likely continue using both Arm and RISC-V chips.

Open standard collaboration

The Raspberry Pi Foundation, a non-profit group that builds the Raspberry Pi developer boards with open source firmware, also joined the RISC-V Foundation in January.
