Global Media Networking System Control Standards

The Open Control Architecture (OCA) Alliance, the industry collective developing a media networking system control standard for professional applications, has been officially incorporated as a non-profit trade association.

Founded in June 2011, the Alliance has released initial technical documents to its Observer members in October of 2011, and the complete OCA 1.0 Specification to the Observers in May of 2012.

Coincident with its incorporation, the Alliance has placed the current Release 1.1 Specification on its public website.

The Alliance will soon transfer the Specification to a public standards organization for ratification as an official open public standard, free for all to use at no cost. Subsequently, the Alliance will actively support the standards-making process, and will at the same time promote and support the adoption of OCA as a tool for the professional media systems industry.
