Mirantis Joins Linux Foundation's Agentic AI Foundation as Silver Member

Implementing Model Context Protocol servers at enterprise scale

CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mirantis, delivering Kubernetes-native infrastructure for AI, today announced its official membership in the Linux Foundation's newly formed Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) as a Silver Member.

“With MCP governance transitioning to the open source community, we expect even more rapid adoption and accelerated development of the technology,” said Randy Bias, vice president of open source strategy and technology at Mirantis. “So, at this nascent stage of AI and MCP technology, we’re applying our expertise to help enterprises at whatever level is needed from getting started to full implementations.”

Silver membership enables participation in general meetings, community events, and working groups. Plus, networking access to other member organizations, open source leaders, and technical steering committees (TSCs). And, the ability to nominate representatives for committees.

According to the Linux Foundation, the advent of agentic AI represents a new era of autonomous decision-making and coordination across AI systems that will transform and revolutionize entire industries. The AAIF provides a neutral, open foundation to ensure this critical capability evolves transparently, collaboratively, and in ways that advance the adoption of leading open source AI projects. Its inaugural projects – AGENTS.md, goose, and MCP – lay the groundwork for a shared ecosystem of tools, standards, and community-driven innovation.

On September 30, Mirantis launched its MCP AdaptiveOps framework as a safe and reliable way for engineering teams to build and operate MCP servers, while ensuring interoperability and compliance as the MCP ecosystem evolves. MCP AdaptiveOps is a future-proof framework that abstracts away uncertainty in today’s fast-moving ecosystem of registries, gateways, and LLM routers, accelerating delivery of MCP servers that are production-ready while adaptable to whatever standards and components emerge as the Model Context Protocol matures.

The Mirantis “metal-to-model” k0rdent AI offering enables enterprises that need agents to access private LLMs connected to sensitive data. Mirantis brings years of experience with production operations for highly-regulated industries, and helping customers transition to cloud-native IT infrastructure – and now supporting their AI workloads.
