The document discusses open source business models and the evolution of open source software. It outlines 6 common open source business models: [1] open source + services, [2] mixed proprietary/open source, [3] open source + dual licensing, [4] open source aggregation, [5] open source + hardware, and [6] open source consulting. It also notes that open source software is now mainstream and that companies should think of themselves as software-driven businesses rather than open source businesses specifically. In conclusion, building a successful open source software business requires the same fundamentals as any business, and open source alone does not provide a sustainable competitive advantage.

Presentation on “Every consumer is a business user is a consumer”. Audience was a large group of CIO’s of large Belgian companies and my mission was to convince them of the fact that Consumers (and especially the Gen-Y people entering their companies) will drive their IT infrastructure innovation over the next years. And also make them realize they play a key role in the success or failure of their company the next years to come.

In this presentation, Morph Labs' Chairman Winston Damarillo talks about global opportunities in software, highlighting open source's disruptive approach. He cites Exist Software and Morph Labs -- companies that have leveraged open source technologies in bringing products to market.
Open Source means a lot of things and revolutionized the way software is built over the last two decades.
Whether developing a product or providing a service, companies are rushing to get their businesses cloud ready, increasingly (big) data driven and flexible enough to take advantage of the inherent business scalability opportunities offered by the cloud.
And as the focus switches to the scale economies of execution, from ever cheaper opaque hosted web storage and connected services to the immutable containers movement, a question arises: what is the role of Open Source software in a world in which not only software (SaaS), but also platform (PaaS) and infrastructure (IaaS) are increasingly delivered (and consumed) as hosted services?
In this session, we'll attempt to answer to this question, by providing examples of Open Source cloud & big data companies and studying the effects of open development ecosystems and how Open Source is engrained in the fabric of the Cloud.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Stick with the herd! Hold on!
Visionaries: Skeptics:
Get ahead of the herd! No way!
Techies:
Try it!
Innovators Early Early Majority Late Majority Laggards

Pragmatists create the dynamics of high-tech market development
8. Open Source evolution -
from process innovation to value creation! (walli)
• In its early days open source was rather improving existing than
innovating new
– Value creation and preservation are the key. The software value is
preserved by sharing it. The more people using it, the more value it
creates. People should not mix the value of quot;IP protectionquot; (i.e. a legal
tool to protect intellectual assets) to the business, with the value of the
asset itself.
• Today there are clear evidences of business innovations
– Proprietary software world talked about subscription models for years,
but it was companies with open source related products that
developed real innovation here. Likewise,with SaaS vendors that are
invariably hosted on infrastructures of open source software and able
to be more inventive in their business models because their margin
calculations scale differently.
9. Businessmodels 1/6
1) Open Source + Service
What it means: Companies sell support and services around open-source software.
Who’s doing it: Compiere (ERP), JBoss (middleware), Red Hat (Linux)
Advantages for CIOs: You pay only for support, not software. The cost to switch
providers is relatively low because the source code is available to anyone.
Startup challenges: Difficult to build businesses because switching costs are low, as
are barriers to entry. CIOs will always favor large, established vendors over startups
unless the startups also control code development. Hard to get venture funding
because venture capitalists are looking for sustainable competitive advantage in
their investments. Unless the software is complex or mission-critical, CIOs may
choose to support it themselves.
10. Businessmodels 2/6
2) Mixed
What it means: An open-source code base with proprietary add-ons.
Who’s doing it: Sourcefire (security), SugarCRM
Advantages for CIOs: CIOs may not need the proprietary stuff, but if they do they’ll
already have acquired deep experience with the open-source product before buying
the add-ons.
Startup challenges: There’s ample motivation to make the open-source product
inferior to the proprietary package, transforming the open source into trial software. If
that happens, there may be a backlash among open-source developers and users
wanting to see all the code.
11. Businessmodels 3/6
3) Open Source + Buy Off (Dual License)
What it means: Companies offer a proprietary license for their open-source software
so that users can modify the software and redistribute it without having to make the
code changes available to the public.
Who’s doing it: MySQL (database), Sleepycat (database)
Advantages for CIOs: The open-source software has all the features of the
proprietary version.
Startup challenges: Sales of the proprietary version are limited mostly to those
companies that want to redistribute it as part of their own hardware or software
packages, companies also need to own all the rights to the product. Think MySQL vs
PostgreSQL.
12. Businessmodels 4/6
4) Open Source + Aggregation
What it means: Companies assemble various open-source software packages into
integrated units that are easier for CIOs to consume.
Who’s doing it: Exadel, Navica, SourceLabs, SpikeSource
Advantages for CIOs: Simplifies open-source integration and support.
Startup challenges: Barriers to entry are low, brand differentiation is difficult, lack of
ownership of open-source projects limits the influence of the company in the
development of the code.
13. Businessmodels 5/6
5) Open Source + Hardware
What it means: Hardware makers use open source as the foundation for the software
that runs their machines.
Who’s doing it: Cisco, Digium, Netezza, Nokia (Maemo with 900million Euro savings)
Advantages for CIOs: Lower prices on hardware.
Startup challenges: It’s difficult to differentiate on hardware alone, especially when
CIOs are looking to standardize their infrastructure

revenues, is my best guess) - February 2006
Gluecode - $10 million (on very little in trailing revenues,
less than $1 million, I believe) - May 2005
SUSE - $210 million (can't remember revenues - I think
$30-40 million) - November 2003
Ximian - ~$50 million (I can't remember - on $1 million or
so in trailing revenues) - August 2003

16. Maybe we should change terminology?
Maybe we should start talking about software driven
businesses instead of Open Source businesses.
After all Open Source is way of producing and distributing
software, not a businessmodel.
...and the biggest successes in 2000’s have been software
(OSS) driven businesses such as Google, Amazon,
Ebay, Sulake Labs.
17. Conclusions and Implications
• In building an OS software business you need the
same basic elements of business
• OS to be part of company’s business model, it should
emphasis elements
1. competitive position,
2. source of competence and
3. faster route to the international markets
• OS does provide a way to challenge incumbents, even
giant ones, but it has to be something more than just
opening up the code, that does not provide enough
of disruption.
• Open Source is not evidently a business model
