The document discusses the suitability of open-source software for corporate use in Indonesia, highlighting various instances where companies transitioned to PostgreSQL from proprietary systems. It outlines the characteristics of open-source licenses, risks associated with using open-source software, and proposed mitigation strategies, while detailing the business model of Equnix, which provides professional support for PostgreSQL implementations. Additionally, it presents several success stories of organizations that benefited from Equnix's services in optimizing their database systems.

1. OPEN SOURCE FOR BUSINESS
Apakah Open Source Cocok Digunakan dalam
Korporasi?

2. Open Source Software dalam Dunia Bisnis Indonesia
1. Penggunaan Postgres/Solaris pada
Bank Permata untuk mobile
banking tahun 2003
2. Finnet Indonesia pertama kali
melakukan konversi Oracle ke
PPAS/Postgres tahun 2011
3. Bank BJB pertama kali
menggunakan PostgreSQL tahun
2012
4. Bank Danamon memindahkan
Oracle ke Postgres tahun 2015 pada
Internet Banking-nya (v2)
5. Bank BCA dan Bank Mandiri mulai
menggunakan Postgres tahun 2016
6. Saat ini penggunaan software Open Source selain
PostgreSQL sudah banyak digunakan, seperti:
Hadoop, Cassandra, Kafka, dll.
7. Tidak semua open source adalah Open Source.

3. Apa itu Open Source?
1. Source code tersedia secara bebas untuk
diunduh, dilihat, dikompilasi, dan digunakan
2. Dilindungi oleh pernyataan Lisensi Publik (Hak
Cipta Tidak Komersial) dan oleh karena itu setiap
orang dilindungi untuk menggunakannya secara
legal
3. Lisensinya terdaftar pada situs web:
OpenSource.Org
4. Tidak ada jaminan/garansi
5. Tidak ada entitas tunggal yang mengarahkan
perkembangan software tersebut
6. Para developer tersebar di berbagai entitas, baik
itu entitas bisnis maupun entitas nonbisnis.

4. Open Source License
GPL-like BSD-Like Attribution-like
★ GPL is a shorthand of General
Public Licenses. Issued by FSF
(Free Software Foundation)
Richard Stallman, begins at
1991.
★ This licenses protect every
user to use this software and
allow modification
whatsoever, BUT it does not
allow you to create or make
proprietary software derived
from GPL Source Code.
★ Every changes should be made
as Open Source.
★ BSD is a shorthand of
Berkeley Software
Development from Univ of
California Berkeley.
★ It is the most freely mode of
licensing, you may derive it
and claim as your own
whatsoever.
★ There are alike, such as: MIT,
Apache, etc.
★ In spirit it frees you to make
anything from software with
this licences.
★ Attribution is a license with
asking every user or modifier
to attribute the original
author.
★ Similarly with CC, Creative
Common is the example,
★ This also apply to any objects
not only software, like article,
graph design, etc.

5. Open Source License
Pure Open Source
Developed and contributed by all around the world, there is
no single institution controls the development or roadmap.
Public ownership and using single licensing. Source code is
licensed as copyleft. Usually an infrastructure software.
Company Endorsed
Usually starts from proprietary software then eventually
released using copyleft, Development controlled by single
institutions: company, private group, etc. The roadmap is not
publicly shared. There might be a hidden agenda. It can be
used for public, sometimes with limitation.
Marketing Gimmick
Dual licensing (Copyleft and Copyright) non-production
quality for their Open Source version. Development roadmap
is based on the commercial trend.

6. Resiko penggunaan Open Source
1. Tidak ada garansi
2. Tidak ada pihak yang akan
bertanggung jawab terhadap risiko
yang muncul dari OSS
3. Kontrol kualitas yang tidak dapat
dipastikan
4. Risiko-risiko adanya trojan, backdoor,
maupun malware lainnya
5. Belum adanya dukungan Ekosistem
yang mumpuni

7. MITIGASI
A. Memiliki tim support yang mampu
melaksanakan administrasi, support, dan
analisis akar permasalahan
B. Memiliki tim yang siap sedia 24 jam sehari
menjaga sistem
C. Memiliki tim yang terbukti memiliki
keahlian dan mampu melakukan bug fix
bilamana dibutuhkan
D. Memiliki tim yang setiap saat melakukan
proses pembelajaran terhadap OSS
tersebut (arsitektur, source code, best
practice)
1. Menggunakan versi
berbayar
2. Menggunakan Vendor
untuk melaksanakan
kegiatan mitigasi tersebut
..atau…

8. 2 Options for Pure Open Source
Being used in Business
Following the “Forking
as Commercial”
business model
Do it in Open
Source way

9. Business Model Comparison

10. Equnix use Pure
Open Source
Software
Freedom
We don’t depend to
any vendor nor
proprietary
technology, we have
many choices and
options. We are the
master of our
choice. We have our
own independence
to use.
100% legal
Open Source is also
licensed by a
protection or
copyrighted to avoid
reclaim of others.
Therefore, it is
formally legal.
We can just purchase
any subscription
based if we want to
ensure the legality by
compliance to the
current purchasing
policy.
Sovereign
Pure Open
Source delivers
as it is, there is
no hidden
agenda:
everyone can
audit the source
code, even
better we have
done QC and
support it as if
we are the
principal, that
means we have
100%
responsibility for
the software,
and binary
delivery.

11. Set Them Free
Serving them with the same quality of delivery of
the proprietary software but with the ease and
freedom delivered by the Open Source itself.
To set them free, one doesn't
re-license, instead deliver the
PostgreSQL License all the way to
the client. (PostgreSQL is the
example in this talk)
Master the Software
Open Source is something like an orphan, it doesn’t
have any institution who holds production
responsibility like a manufacturer as it is the parent.
It is really not an easy task, it
requires a great amount of time
and passion.
Do it in Open Source Way
Define the Corridor
OSS is not a complete product. As part of
Enterprise delivery, it should have: Standard
Operating Procedures, Best Practice, etc; Supporting
Tools: Monitoring, Administration, etc; Automation
Script: Start/stop/restart/recover/etc;
Support level:
Level 1: Technical Support,
Level 2: Expert Support,
Level 3: Principal Support;

12. Contribute to
Develop Ecosystem
Every technology requires their
own ecosystem, there is no
technology that can be used well
without accompanied by their
ecosystem
Do it in Open Source Way
Master the delivery,
set the standard
So, We should master not only
the technical aspect, but the
operation and business aspect as
well. Eventually we should
develop the standard by its
technical and natural constraints
of the application.
Deliver Professionally
Delivering the Open Source
service in a professional manner
is very much expected just like
quenching your thirst in the
desert.
