The Open Compute Project (OCP), initiated by Facebook in 2011, focuses on open designs for servers, storage, racks, and power systems. The goals are:
Reduce energy consumption by using efficient hardware.
Save materials by eliminating unnecessary components.
Lower costs by standardizing and sharing open designs.
Option B is wrong—OCP hardware can be adopted by enterprises as well. Option C is unrelated (OCP is hardware, not OS). Option D is broader cloud adoption, not OCP’s direct mission.
Thus, the primary focus is energy, material, and cost savings through open-source hardware.
