Summary

Q & A

What is Open Source?

What is Open Source?

‘Open Source’ originally coined in a strategy session to position and explain Netscape’s 1998 announcement to give away the source code for its browser

Open source has evolved to describe the principles and methodologies that promote open access to the production and design process for various goods, products and resources

Today, Open Source Software (OSS) has become the most recognized form of open source

Open Source Software

OSS was advocated to replace “Free Software’Less ambiguous termHigher comfort in the corporate world

OSS follows the “Bazaar” vs. “Cathedral” Development Model:

Users as Co-DevelopersEarly ReleasesFrequent IntegrationMultiple VersionsHigh Modularization (SOC)Dynamic Decision-Making Structures

Open Source Software: Process and Projects

Open Source ProcessesProven to be very successfulCommunity-oriented and widely distributedHighly agileOrganized through multiple governance models

Open Source ProjectsVast range from Linux to Apache to EclipseAvailable in all layers of the technology stackInitially a commoditization of technologyNow leading technology innovation

Disruptors

OSS penetration in G2000 continues to grow

Productized OSS (Distributions) -- continues to challenge incumbents: IBM, Oracle, BEA and Sybase are responding with “hybrids”

New OSS buying pattern – ‘long tail’ components require new sellers

OSS Governance -- IT/IS organizations piecing together their own solutions

OSS-style Development - IBM is rapidly putting together a strategy around Jazz

Enterprise Adoption of Open Source

Enterprise Open Source Adoption: Trends

“By 2010, Open Source will be included in mission-critical software portfolios within 75% of G2000 companies.”

By 2010, 90 percent of Global 2000 organizations will have formal open-source acquisition and management strategies (0.8 probability)

By 2008, OSS solutions will directly compete with closed-source products in all software infrastructure markets (0.8 probability)

“We're going to utilize the way the community develops software for E*Trade proprietary development... and make E*Trade more nimble.”

- Gartner

- ETrade

Enterprise Open Source Adoption: Benefits

Open StandardsProjects are built on established standards (JCP, RCF)

Multiple implementations against established standards offers choice to users

Reference implementations of standards driven by OSS

Community SupportBroad user base around OSS projects

Expert consulting/development experience available for major projects

Community forums/mailings lists helps users get started

Enterprise Open Source Adoption: Benefits

ExtensibilityAccess to source provides extensibility

Many projects driven to design for extensibility

OSS frameworks and platforms offer technology leadership

LicensingLess restrictive deployment licensing

Ability to embed OSS technologies into products

Enables massive deployments (Grid/Farm)

Enterprise Adoption

"CIOs can't afford to treat open source as a throwaway, and they can't afford to do without support for the open

source that becomes a vital component of their infrastructures.”

Christopher Koch Exec Editor, CIO Magazine

Open Source Adoption: Enterprise Planning


What are you using?Identify the OSS and versions in your Enterprise

Understand the dependencies your organization has

What licenses can you use?Determine licenses you’ll allow in your Enterprise

Gather information on OSS licenses

How are you managing IP Verification?Track your source to ensure Cut and Paste violations are occurring

Do you need support?Don’t forget that support is available for many OSS projects

Investigate these support subscriptions and determine what you need

Are you indemnified?Determine your legal requirements

Build a policy and structure for contributions


Artifact-driven EngineeringBorn of modularization and community developmentOffers a place to store binary artifacts, associated source and metadataExtended to store
