Podcast Mar 31, 2025Root Causes 481: What Is Protocol Ossification?
Protocol ossification is the phenomenon whereby ecosystems fail to work correctly with the full range of options included in a protocol. This occurs when individual software components only partially support the capabilities that should be available. We define protocol ossification, explain how and why it occurs, give real world examples, and talk about potential remedies.
