Open source software provides an abundance of options for easily acquiring software, which if left unmanaged has the potential to lead to bloated code bases, an operational risk from deploying buggy components and inflated software maintenance and support costs. But the enterprise can benefit from the abundance of available, high-quality open source software and avoid the chaos of undisciplined open source software use by relying on best practices for code and component management.
Organizations also benefit from the ability to find, understand and reuse components/packages and code across the organization to continuously drive software development productivity increases.
What the paper covered?
This white paper discusses the benefits of effective open source software management, which is especially pertinent to industries facing increased technology-influenced regulatory requirements.
Conclusion
Some of the benefits of using open source include reduced costs, increased information technology flexibility & innovation and faster solution times. Yet, poorly managed open source software can lead to higher costs and a lack of productivity.
