Four Laws of Tech Product Economics - Rich Mironov

Avoiding Maslow’s Hammer: Or the Problem of the Birmingham Screwdriver in Ope...
Linux Foundation Summit, Dublin, 2022
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-y1O7NPiGM4
Maslow’s Hammer refers to the adage that if all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. Non-profits serve open source project communities in very particular ways. Creating non-profits to support the community’s work takes skill and thoughtfulness, often as much as the work building the community itself around the project. The successful creation of the non-profit structure can lead to the next wave of growth for the community. An unhealthy non-profit is a drain on everyone’s energy. This talk provides a framework for understanding how a non-profit solves certain inescapable problems that successful open source project communities encounter in their growth. It provides practices and processes and tools to engage partners in creating successful non-profits. It looks at a number of real world examples. Anti-patterns are presented along the way.
Minimum Viable Governance
There is a proliferation of open source related non-profits, each working to drive attention to a set of projects or technology spaces, each demanding attention or membership dollars for growth. One of the first discussions such non-profits encounter is the governance discussion. Then come the projects for the non-profit to support, and each of them too wants to have a discussion about governance. We will look at the history of open source non-profits, and their governance structures, and how it met their goals (and the goals of their projects). Then we will look at what’s changed and work to evolve the model that people can use to judge for themselves whether a non-profit solves for the problems that need to be solved. Understanding the underlying governance models and structures in a non-profit will allow project owners and non-profit members to better judge what is needed for growth, what growth might look like, and what it will cost in effort and money. Sarah and Stephen have worked in a number of different open source project and non-profit settings and can speak to the models, mistakes, and learnings. From the Open Source Summit Europe 2020, delivered 26 Oct 2020. https://osseu2020.sched.com/event/eCGH/mvg-minimum-viable-governance-stephen-walli-sarah-novotny-microsoft

Software Freedom in a Post Open Source World
Engineers have collaborated on software since they've written software all the way back through the 1950s. In the past few years we have begun to see people argue for a different definition of open source software and raise concerns for the sustainability of the ecosystem. This talk looks at the underpinnings of those concerns, and how the future of free software is an anchor going forward. https://2020.copyleftconf.org/schedule/presentation/8/

SCaLE 17x There is [Still] NO Open Source Business Model
Building a business is hard work, but it is even harder when the business starts with a faulty premise. This presentation will walk the audience through models for thinking about open source software economics, and business modelling to help understand what business ideas will likely work in a world enabled by open source software. The talk looks at:
- The underlying economics of open source software development from both the production and consumption perspectives.
- The basics of business modelling that will help folks understand the risks and strengths of open source licensed software.
- The pitfalls and dangers of getting the model wrong.
- Several case studies in successes and failures in the space.
- A way to think about the use and abuse of open source software foundations.

The Democratization of Software (SeaGL 2018)
In 1995 everything changed with the creation of the World Wide Web. Anything that could be digitized was digitized and entire industries changed. And with the digitization came tools to help everyone become a producer of digital content. From music to video, books to journalism, we pulled all the friction out of the content pipeline and democratized entire industries.
But the industry we never talk about is the one that was already digital – software. Software was democratized as well. We’ve shared software for as long as we’ve written software. By pulling the friction out of the pipeline around software and sharing it liberally through open source licensing, we’ve ended up in a completely new software industry over the past 20 years.
This talk presents the trends that got the industry to where it is, as well as ideas for the coming challenges for the next twenty years of open source software. It might be a cautionary tale.
There is NO Open Source Business Model

Docker Seattle Meetup, May 2017
An introduction to the Moby Project and LinuxKit. The demo essentially walked through the LinuxKit examples available on Github at https://github.com/linuxkit/linuxkit paying specific attention to the linuxkit.yml nginx example in the home directory, and the redis-os example in the examples directory.
Ask Not What Your Community Can Do For You
Publishing software with an open source license is the definitive step, but it doesn’t create a community. Growing and scaling a successful open source software project requires building three on ramps for users, developers, and ultimately contributors. This short talk outlines the practices and patterns for these on ramps, demonstrating how they relate to one another. More importantly the talk sets the mind set to bring to the discussion. Delivered at the Community Leadership Summit 2017 http://bit.ly/2qiP3z0
The Trouble with Open Source Software
I think 2016 was the year of open source angst. We're caught between discussions about open source sustainability and accelerating corporate open source projects. I tackle the two open source vectors most people discuss: community and corporate engagement. The real problem, however, is the democratization of software and the growing skills gap as the demand for software goes up. This talk was given at SCaLE 15X (http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/15x/presentations/trouble-open-source-software).
Freeloaders are Essential and Other Open Source Product Truths

Scale14x Patterns and Practices for Open Source Project Success
There are two parts to the “success” of an open source software project:
Deployment growth: One publishes software to see it used. As the software is used, it reflects the dynamic nature of software, and is used in new ways to solve new problems. This leads to the second part of the success formula -- contributions.
Contribution flow: A free or open source software project is at it’s simplest a discussion in software, and without contributions the conversation fades and fails. From a more complex community perspective, a FOSS project is about the economics of collaborative innovation and development. Without a continuous contribution flow, the dynamic aspect of a software project will become static and brittle and lose its relevancy.
There are three on ramps to be built to drive the success of an open source project: Bringing new users to the project, enabling developers, and encouraging contributors. This talk looks at how these on ramps can be organized to drive growth and adoption, and to grow a successful and vibrant community around an open source project.

Turning Pets into Cattle: A Demonstration to Provoke Discussion
There have been lots of discussions in the cloud world about traditional 3-tier application workloads that are highly managed (i.e. Pets) and their modern web-counterpart workloads that are scalable, resilient, and fault tolerant (i.e. Cattle). But how does one migrate business critical applications from a "simple" virtualized world into a hybrid-cloud based on OpenStack?
This talk walks through moving a running web application from one such virtualized 3-tier world into an OpenStack-based cloud world and the sorts of changes that need to be considered for re-architecting the app and re-deploying it into the cloud. The steps are meant to provoke conversations and should not be considered a recipe book.

Patterns for Open Source Success
There are a set of patterns that successful open source software projects follow. These activities can be organized as software construction, community development, and IP management activities.

The Evolution of the Open Source Software Foundation
When FOSS project communities reach a certain critical point in their growth, corporations express interest in participating. Corporations have more stringent and robust software IP management needs, however, and projects are not always up to the task. Neutral non-profit FOSS foundations have proved to be a solution to these problems, providing for the IP management needs of corporations while offering additional business and technical services to the project communities to encourage further growth and adoption. (Conference Details: http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale11x/presentations/evolution-open-source-software-foundation)
The Rise and Evolution of the Open Source Software Foundation
Free and open source software (FOSS) project communities continue to grow and thrive. When such projects reach a certain critical point in their growth, corporations express interest in participating. Corporations have more stringent and robust software intellectual property (IP) management needs, however, and projects are not always up to the task. Neutral non-profit FOSS foundations have proved to be a solution to these problems, providing for the IP management needs of corporations while offering additional business and technical services to the project communities to encourage further growth and adoption. This presentation reviews how such neutral non-profit organizations have grown to meet the evolving legal, business, and technical needs of FOSS communities and businesses.
FOSS Foundations Enable Community Growth
A talk I gave at Open World Forum 2011, Paris. FOSS projects grow until they reach a certain size but can grow no further. FOSS Foundations enable projects to grow to reach their potential by providing the legal structures and tools to enable corporate contribution and wider adoption. This talk looks at a brief history of foundations in the FOSS space, and what tools they provide to help community projects grow.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor Turskyi
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery.
