Use OSS To Serve OSS - Ant OSPO's Trial Approach on Dev Tooling and OSPO Infra - Richard Sikang Bian & Florian Fan, Ant Group
Thursday March 20, 2025 2:00pm - 2:30pm PDT
Vintner's Court
Ant Group established its Open Source Program Office (OSPO) over three years ago, initially focused on compliance and project support. Over the years, the team has evolved into a full-fledged business unit with dedicated emphasis on strategy, growth, developer experience, and internationalization. As the team has matured, one key insight we've gained is the critical importance of development tooling and "OSPO infra" to systematically support our growing portfolio of more than 20 internal projects—a number that continues to expand.

Operating without dedicated developer or product resources, we have pioneered a unique approach to building and scaling our infrastructure. In this session, we will share our perspective for "OSPO infra" and the toolkit we've developed so far. We will also explore a specialized area of focus for Ant Group—graph technology—and how it plays a critical role in this initiative.

The second half of the presentation will delve into a case study demonstrating how our OSPO collaborates with the Graph team (https://github.com/tugraph-family) to build open-source tools that have proven valuable in supporting and serving OSS teams.
