Open Computing


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

Adaptability is vital

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent; it is the one

that is most adaptable to change.”Charles Robert Darwin (1809-82)


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

Open computing goals

Ensure flexibilityEnsure interoperabilityAvoid vendor lock-inDrive cost effectivenessEnsure future access to informationEnsure a level playing field for competitionMaximize freedom of action


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

The principles of open computing

Open standards:– Promoting interoperability by using open published

specifications for APIs, protocols and data and file formats

Open architecture:– Building loosely coupled, flexible,

reconfigurable solutionsOpen source software:– Promotes standards– Leverages community development

and collaborative innovation


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

Standardization of the rail network enabled industrialized America and Europe– The connecting platform fueled growth,

creating new business opportunities– This increased factory efficiencies by driving

better connection with resources– This enabled new distribution models and

fundamentally changed the marketplace and how it operated

Other technologies had similar effects:– The electricity grid– The national highway systems– The Internet– Web services and industry-specific

standards?

Why standardization?


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

Open standards

Published without restrictionFreely available for adoption by the industryControl by an open industry organization Implemented by offerings available in the market

Standards evolutionNeed Initiator Core group Standards body


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

An important trend in maximizing the value of IT

Examples: Java, .NetExample: Landmark Graphics

Standard interfaces are made available, but owner has control over how the standard evolves and may charge for use

Technology may be standard, but details are not made available beyond the firm

Examples: TCP/IP, HTML, XMLExample: Cryptography

Details of standards are available to all: no single firm has control over how they evolve

Standards are owned and controlled by the public sector but are not freely available

An open computing policy roadmap

Insist on openness, but make pragmatic business oriented decisions based on features, training cost,

availability of skill, interoperability and value for money

1. Insist on open standards as a matter of policy... be pragmatic about it

2. Focus on interoperable IT systems3. Avoid procurement of proprietary, non-open standards based

solutions4. Evaluate Open Source solutions on equal footing with

commercial solutions5. Reject mandates or preferences based on development model6. Insist on open File formats7. Adopt open computing as an underlying philosophy


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

Open source softwarewww.opensource.org

Examples of open source software:

– Apache – web server– Eclipse – application

development– Gnome – desktop

environment– Mozilla – browser,

mail, calendar– OpenOffice.org –

productivity suite– Perl – language– Samba – file/print– SendMail – mail server– TCP/IP – networking

Software whose source code is published and made available to the public

– Community develops, debugs, maintains

– “Survival of the fittest” – peer review– Generally high quality, high

performance software– Superior security – on par with other

UNIXesOften built by communityRedistribution rightsMay be a reference implementation of an open specification


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

Five principles of open source software

1. Licensees are free to use Open Source software for any purpose whatsoever

2. Licensees are free to make copies of Open Source software and to distribute them without payment of royalties to a licensor

3. Licensees are free to create derivative works of Open Source software and to distribute them without payment of royalties to a licensor

4. Licensees are free to access and use the source code of Open Source software

5. Licensees are free to combine Open Source and other software

��®

Can OSS co-exist with commercial software?

Most OSS licenses allow combination and distribution of OSS and Commercial source code under a commercial licenseSome commonly encountered OSS Licenses (BSD, MIT, X11, Apache) don’t require modifications to original OSS to be published upon redistributionGPL allows commercial applications to be built on top of Linux to remain commercial– Application can be licensed under commercial license of choice– No need to disclose source code of such applicationsLGPL Libraries can be dynamically linked to arbitrary commercialcode– No requirement to release commercial code under LGPLDecision to use OSS is just another business decisionLicense terms need to be understood before beginning to work with OSS


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

Why is open source important?

Can be a major source of innovation– Innovation can happen anywhere – any time– Development through “open communities” leads to potentially broad

ideas and creativityCommunity Approach– Internet has changed how enterprises address technical innovation– Shapes IBM technical leaders thinking and approach to broad

collaborationGood approach to developing emerging standards– Popular Open Source projects can become de facto / open standards– Wide distribution/deploymentEnterprise customers are asking for it– Increase choice and flexibility – adoption/use of Open Source can

reduce time to market

“Free software is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of free as in free speech, not as in free beer.”– Richard Stallman, Free Software Foundation“It is not about Free. It's about Freedom. The freedom to collaborate. The freedom to innovate.”– Nick Donofrio, IBM

It is all about freedom of choice


IBM Canada Ltd.


Linux


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

What is Linux?

A “UNIX-like” Operating System that is community developed with the source code being readily available– Robust functionality and scalability– Solid stability and security– Lightweight and modularOperates on virtually any platform – server or clientGenerally acquired on a support subscription basis from Linux Distribution Partner (LDP)– Novell– Red HatDevelopment coordinated by the Open Source Development Lab


IBM Canada Ltd.


��®

Attractive hardware acquisition costsAvailability of low-cost, Open Source softwareLinux runs across all hardware platformsx86, x86-64, RISC and CISC (including mainframes)Interest in alternatives to Windows and UNIX, offering customers choice in software platformsExpectations of improved price/performanceRe-use of existing UNIX skills in enterprise, HPC computing

Linux and Oracle

Linux will pass Sun Solaris as the leading Oracle deployment platforms according to a groundbreaking study– This survey of more than 800 enterprises using Oracle

database technology revealed that while 49 percent of the respondents currently run Oracle on a Solaris platform, that number should slip to 43 percent next year

– At the same time, 39 percent of the respondents currently run Oracle on Linux, a figure that should climb to 44 percent by next year, making Linux the top Oracle deployment platform
