Each conformant product must support at least one ONVIF profile.

These Plugfests help promote the overall mission of ONVIF \u2013 to promote and provide standardized interfaces for effective interoperability of IP-based physical security products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Details of the next ONVIF Developers\u2019 Plugfest will be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full press release can be found&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.onvif.org\/pressrelease\/onvif-hosts-23rd-virtual-developers-plugfest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ONVIF was pleased to host its 23rd Developers\u2019 Plugfest, and second virtual event in April.
