In advance of the start of the 2026 OCP EMEA Summit, AMI – the global leader in firmware – is pleased to announce the launch of MegaRAC OneTree Community Edition, an open-source, OpenBMC-based firmware solution for AI factory and data centre management. Along with this release, AMI is also sharing a preview of the upcoming AMI Rack Manager software solution for AI rack management. Additionally, the company is unveiling a new Partner Alliance program designed to consolidate and strengthen OpenBMC support across the data centre ecosystem.
These moves underscore a renewed focus from AMI on scaling open innovation to address a myriad of challenges data centre operators face in managing the $2.02 trillion in infrastructure expected to be deployed in data centres by 2032.
MegaRAC OneTree Community Edition (CE) represents AMI’s deepened commitment to open-source firmware innovation. Released under the same license as the Linux Foundation’s OpenBMC project, MegaRAC OneTree CE tackles a persistent challenge in the data centre management landscape: fragmentation of the control plane of data centre infrastructure.
MegaRAC OneTree CE provides a solid, single codebase with wide system support, built on a standards-based design that aligns with the needs of silicon providers, server OEMs and ODMs, and AI factory operators. Its architecture focuses on modern management protocols and interfaces, giving operators a consistent, extensible platform for BMC firmware across diverse hardware environments.
AMI CEO Sanjoy Maity said, “Today’s announcement of MegaRAC OneTree CE, as well as our broader commitment to open-source innovation for complex AI factory management, will help address the critical challenges of managing today’s heterogeneous, fragmented infrastructure landscape. Our deep collaboration with leaders across the data centre value chain places AMI in a unique position to lead open technology innovation, and we look forward to leveraging our firmware expertise for the critical requirements for AI factory advancement.”
