Membership
Become a member of the Enterprise Knowledge Graph Forum (EKGF) and participate through two complementary OMG groupings: the EKGF Managed Community and the Enterprise Knowledge Graph Platform Task Force (EKGPTF).
EKGF Managed Community
The outward-facing home for members and practitioners—where most day-to-day EKGF collaboration happens and work products are developed.
- Open to individuals and organizations at a lower cost point
- Most EKGF initiatives live here (Principles, Method, Maturity, Catalog, and DPROD)
- OMG SDO members can join the Managed Community at no extra cost (still requires signup)
EKG Platform Task Force (EKGPTF)
A formal OMG Standards Development Organization (SDO) Task Force focused on standardization—turning community best practices into OMG specifications and reference materials.
- Participation requires OMG SDO membership
- SDO membership is enterprise-wide and includes wholly-owned subsidiaries
- Platform or Contributing level memberships include voting rights in the standards process (per OMG rules)
How to join
For Managed Community membership, choose the form that matches your current OMG status. For EKGPTF participation, apply for OMG SDO membership.
Managed Community (OMG SDO)
If your organization is already an OMG SDO member, join the Managed Community at no additional cost.
Managed Community (non-member)
If you’re not an OMG SDO member, you can still join the Managed Community through the non-member membership form.
OMG membership
To participate in EKGPTF, become an OMG member (SDO membership required for the standards track).
