==Welcome==

Welcome to the Project Olympus Sub-Group.  Charter for this team is to enable the OCP community to further explore, invent, collaborate, enhance, and produce great solutions for customers using Project Olympus modular building blocks.  [https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/Microsoft-Global-Datacenters/Microsoft-Project-Olympus Project Olympus is Microsoft's next generation rack level solution that is open sourced through Open Compute Project.] Initially introduced in November 2016 and with V1.0 contribution in November 2017, Project Olympus addresses variety of cloud workloads for Microsoft Cloud. Since inception, Project Olympus has attracted a large group of partners such as compute silicon providers, ODMs, OEMs, and component manufacturers.  It is becoming the de facto open-compute standard for cloud workloads.

Project Olympus base specification defines a modular architecture with clear internal and external interfaces.  These modules include Hardware (Rack, Universal PDU, Rack Manager, 1U/2U Server and mechanical Enclosures, Power Supply (PSU), Universal Motherboard, PCIe Riser Boards, PCIe and other Cables, and Expansion Modules for storage and accelerators) and Software/Firmware (Software RESTful API, Rack Manager Software/Firmware/Interface, BMC Firmware, System Firmware (BIOS/UEFI code), ResetAPI Spec, and Software APIs) components.

Project Olympus comprises these Hardware and Software Modules to realize a holistic rack architecture; however, individual Modules are applicable to Racks, Chassis, Rack Managers, PDUs, PSUs, Blades and Motherboards from other architectures such as OCP Open Rack, Open Rack 19, Scorpio, 19” EIA Racks, Rack-mount Servers, and Tower Servers.

While, Microsoft is planning Design and Product implementations based on Project Olympus specification, we encourage the community to use as-is, buy/sell as-is, or modify-to-use/sell and to provide feedback on any of these software or hardware Modules.

===Project Olympus Modular System Design===
Project Olympus is a modular system designed for convergence of the industry ecosystem to enable onboarding more hardware more quickly.  The systems are designed for the needs of scale-up systems.

===Project Olympus Rack System===
Project Olympus is built upon a base Rack, 42U or 48U tall, with integrated A/C power distribution and rack-level management.
