Summary
Open Compute Project Foundation summit, October 12-15, 2026, San Jose Convention Center. Lattice and AMI keynote and Booth A53-A54.
Overview
OCP Global Summit 2026 runs October 12-15, 2026 in San Jose, California, at the San Jose Convention Center. The organizer is the Open Compute Project Foundation. Format: in person.
The AMI event page gives the dates (start October 12, end October 15, 2026), the venue (San Jose Convention Center, 150 W San Carlos Street, San Jose, CA 95113) and the organizer (The Open Compute Project). The official event website is opencompute.org/summit/global-summit.
AMI, a Lattice company, takes part as an Emerald Sponsor and exhibitor. The time zone for session times in the Lattice press release is Pacific Time (PT); this page uses America/Los_Angeles. The image is taken from the event page of the exhibitor AMI (a Lattice company); it is exhibitor material, not material of the organizer.
Lattice and AMI keynote "The Open Control Plane: From AI Racks to Autonomous Infrastructure": October 13, 9:58 a.m. PT, Ford Tamer and Sanjoy Maity.
Technical presentations of Lattice and AMI: October 12-15. Demo showcase: October 13-15, Booth A53-A54.
Demo topics from the press release: platform firmware resiliency, flash-less boot, rack-scale management and telemetry, quantum-resistant security, AI-enabled sensor aggregation, open infrastructure management.
For FPGA engineers the Lattice and AMI part of the programme is about control-plane and platform-firmware tasks next to AI racks: flash-less boot, firmware resiliency and rack management. The press release lists the topics; it does not give implementation details.
The Lattice press release says the booth hosts demonstrations and meeting opportunities. Ticket prices are not stated in the sources used here; check the official website.
The summit brings the open infrastructure community together, and the AMI page describes it as a platform to share insights and showcase open hardware and software.
The sources are an exhibitor page and an exhibitor press release; the organizer page opencompute.org was not reachable for automated checking on 2026-10-02 (HTTP 403). Session times may change; the press release does not give technical depth for each talk.
Check the schedule and registration on the official website before travelling. If you want to talk about control planes, bring a concrete question: a boot sequence with no flash is a better opener than "how is it going".

Practical recommendations
Pick one demo at Booth A53-A54 and prepare one question; a booth is a poor place to read a datasheet and a good place to ask what it leaves out.
