Uniting the Document Database Market

The OpenDocDB Workgroup is to bring the Document Database market together, in a joint effort to create an Open Standard, and a possible Reference Implementation for Document Databases.

Our goal is to reach our goals through inclusive collaboration. Together, we can shape the future of document database technology in a vendor-independent organization.

Our Goals

Establish a Compatible Core

Work together with industry leaders to develop a reference implementation for document databases.

Create a Draft Open Specification

Our workgroup values inclusivity and collaboration, regardless of past or future competition.

Ensure that the Draft Specification and any subsequent work will be governed by a Standardization Body at a vendor-neutral Foundation.
