Apache Ossie (Incubating) brings a vendor‑neutral semantic layer to the Apache ecosystem
Snowflake announced that the Open Semantic Interchange project entered the Apache Incubator under the new name Apache Ossie. The spec offers a vendor‑agnostic, YAML‑based format for defining business metrics, dimensions and ontologies, letting BI tools, query engines and AI agents share consistent business meanings. Its Apache home ensures a neutral governance model for industry‑wide adoption.
