2015 Future of Open Source Survey Results

2015 Future of Open Source Survey Results

With a record-breaking 1,300 respondents, the 2015 Future of Open Source Survey results highlight record levels of corporate participation in open source, as well as the greater impact OSS is having on technology and security. Yet, this year's results also reveal a reported lack of formal company policies and processes for consuming and managing open source and its associated legal, operational, and security risks.

  • 10. “The numbers don’t lie. It has been another incredible year for OSS, with organizations large and small adopting open source solutions in greater numbers. The survey confirms what we’ve known all along, that open source is driving innovation for the world's most successful companies, and investors and Global 2000 brands are taking notice. As one of the most trafficked websites on earth, weather.com’s adoption of an open source platform is a testament that the old ways of delivering digital experiences are being replaced by newer, more agile solutions. The weather.com team gains the agility to deliver on customers’ increasing expectations, and is leading the way with contextual weather insight that anticipates every user’s needs." DRIES BUYTAERT, CTO & CO-FOUNDER, ACQUIA @DRIES @ACQUIA @FUTUREOFOSS #FUTUREOSS
  • 11. CASE STUDY CUSTOMER CASE STUDY FOR weather.com by the numbers: • 100 million+ unique visitors every month • 50 million+ page views a day • 20 million+ different pages of content weather.com needed an open delivery platform to help it adapt to fast changes in technology. Millions of people rely on weather.com every day; it is transforming how we interact with weather news. People expect accurate weather forecasts on-demand, and they want to be alerted to events that may impact their life, work, travel, and leisure. weather.com started using Drupal last year to deliver dynamic experiences for its site visitors to meet ever-changing consumer demands. With Drupal, weather.com gains the right combination of agility and connectedness that allows it to expand its platform and maintain quality at the same time. Now it can better: • Present contextual weather insight that anticipates every user’s needs • Create and distribute content quickly • Ensure great performance through an elastic cloud infrastructure @ACQUIA @FUTUREOFOSS #FUTUREOSS

  • 17. “Open source has solidified its position as the default base for software development. It is infiltrating almost every facet of the modern enterprise and is outperforming proprietary packages on quality, cost, customization and security. In the startup community we are seeing a continued wave of open source born companies – the next wave of Red Hat, Acquia and Ubuntu while at the same time seeing traditional IT leaders such as H-P and Microsoft grafting open source DNA into their core. In the coming years, we will see open source unlock the potential of a new generation of technologies – the Internet of Things, big data and cloud computing creating many billions in value.” PAUL SANTINELLI, GENERAL PARTNER, NORTH BRIDGE @PAULSANTINELLI @NORTH_BRIDGE @FUTUREOFOSS #FUTUREOSS

  • 31. “A decade ago, companies went open source to save money. Now, companies need OSS for agility, especially in the age of mobility and IoT. Some of the world’s most disruptive companies are exponentially growing with no signs of stopping. Why? These early adopters built business around OSS—delivering the always-on performance consumers now expect. We’re in the midst of a revolution—shifting from legacy hardware and software to the OSS technology suite. The modern web architecture delivers flexibility, scale and power enterprises need to stay competitive.” GUS ROBERTSON, CEO, NGINX @GUSROBERTSON @NGINX @FUTUREOFOSS #FUTUREOSS

  • 33. CASE STUDY CUSTOMER CASE STUDY FOR The Document Foundation is a not for profit foundation based in Germany, and the house of LibreOffice: the best free office suite, and as such the best alternative to proprietary solutions. Migrating to LibreOffice is an opportunity for both enterprises and public administrations, to switch to standard document formats and reduce desktop TCO. In order to ease the process and make it predictable, The Document Foundation has developed a protocol for migrations based on best practices, which has helped several large organizations to succeed. The workflow and the timeline on the right provide a visual representation of a migration project, which should always be backed by certified professionals. Information are available on the website at http://www.documentfoundation.org/ certification.

  • 39. “Nowhere is the effect of open source software (OSS) more pronounced than in the growth markets of Fast + Big Data, Cloud, and IoT. As enterprises move beyond collecting Big Data for later analysis to driving value in real time from fast streams of incoming data, their reliance on OSS will continue to grow. Developers prefer to use OSS, CIOs are breaking down institutional barriers to enable use of OSS tools, and consumers are snapping up OSS in nearly everything they buy, from mobile phones to connected cars. The 2015 Future of Open Source Survey reflects these market trends, and points the way to cross- industry innovation and opportunity.” BRUCE READING, CEO, VOLTDB @VOLTDB @BRUCEMREADING @FUTUREOFOSS #FUTUREOSS
