DMTF Introduction
The DMTF is a not-for-profit, vendor-neutral collaborative body
that is leading the development, adoption and unification of management
standards and initiatives for desktop, enterprise and internet environments.
The DMTF is chartered to adopt, create and maintain the specifications
and technologies that provide management tools with the ability
to discover, deploy and control management data in a standard way.
Working with key technology vendors and affiliated standards groups,
the DMTF is enabling a more integrated, cost-effective, and less
crisis-driven approach to management through interoperable management
solutions.
DMTF Mission Statement

desktop, network, enterprise and internet environments.
DMTF Goals
