There are two distinct ways to join the OntoPortal community:

• Joining the Alliance: becoming a member of the OntoPortal Alliance and operating your own customized portal based on the OntoPortal technology.
• Joining the Federation: connecting your existing OntoPortal-based portal to the OntoPortal Federation to enable cross-portal browse, search, and other federated services.
