Abstract: Sustaining open-source projects is the decade's challenge. Understanding how contributions are made—by volunteers, sponsored by an organization, or both—can create incentives for ongoing support.
The Drupal project has measured contributions in Drupal.org issues since 2015 using a credit system that captures contributions—including code, documentation, speaking at events, security review, etc.—from both individuals and organizations. This insight is used to shape incentives in the Drupal ecosystem.
Attendees will learn how Drupal’s contribution credit system works and why we would like to bring it to GitLab and other platforms. We hope that other open-source projects and orgs who want to understand their return on investment in open source can model their approach on this credit system and benefit from the insights we’ll be sharing during this presentation.

You Can’t Live Without Open Source - Results from the Open Source 360 SurveyBlack Duck by Synopsys
Today, open source drives technology and development, and its worldwide adoption ranges from companies with a single employee to large corporations like Microsoft and Apple. All of these organizations rely on open source to innovate, reduce development costs, and speed time to market. Recent research reports point out that open source comprises 80% to 90% of the code in a typical application. Our Open Source 360° survey provides an update on the rapid evolution of open source development, use and management.
The 2017 Open Source 360° survey was conducted through Black Duck’s Center for Open Source Research & Innovation (COSRI), focusing on four important areas of open source – usage, risk, contributions and governance/policies. Our respondents include input from new players, established leaders, and influencers across vertical markets and communities. This range of respondents drives broad industry awareness and discussions of these key issues.
During the past few years open source has transformed the tech industry. According to Gartner's survey 85% of companies currently use open source software. In this presentation we will examine what open source is? What are the pros and cons for software developers? How big is the market? How can one make money developing an open source product and which business models companies use? If it doesn’t work – is it possible to witch from and to OS?

How to Maximize Effectiveness of Developers Contributing to Free SoftwareStefano Maffulli
OpenStack is a project that in a fairly short amount of time has attracted in its ecosystem most of IT giants, becoming one of the largest collaborative software development efforts ever seen. From inside, it is quite visible that few companies are organized to allow collaboration across corporate borders. More often instead, companies have policies that actively prevent collaboration to happen. Despite the fact that free software has become ubiquitous, organizations have learned how to deal with licensing issues and distributed software engineering to some extent, but the day-to-day collaborative development is still troublesome. In this talk we'll explore how collaboration works in OpenStack and how companies contribute to the project, what drives their motivations. There will also be time to see examples of how development teams are setup and general tips for corporations.

Abstract: The latest research on open source shows the growing need and value of the skills as well as the advancement of open source in the enterprise stack. Join Deb Bryant, Senior Director, Open Source Project Office at Red Hat and Chris Ferris, CTO, Open Technologies at IBM to cover the latest global research on Open Source. Red Hat and IBM embarked on research in 2020 that have insights on the state of open source, its practitioners and its future. 65% of developers consider skills and knowledge related to underlying Open Source cloud technologies to be more beneficial to their careers, than skills related to any specific cloud. Join us to cover some of the critical questions and discoveries which showed strong support for your skills in key open source technologies. While the widespread use of free and open source software and migration to the cloud are the two most significant shifts characterizing computing in the last two decades, open source technology is still the root of that innovation. In the era of hybrid cloud, open source is maintaining and increasing its influence. Our research suggests that over the long term, recruiting skills in the most fundamental open source tools and libraries will likely provide major benefits to both professionals and their organizations.

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.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

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.

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).

Flash Memory Summit 2015

Abstract: Today, most of the leading edge innovation is taking place in Open Source. This
innovative and collaborative development model is having a dramatic impact on enterprise,
hyperscale and cloud-based applications and solutions.
Most software stacks are optimized for use with hard disk drives or tape, but more and more
enterprises, cloud and hyperscale environments are transitioning off traditional HDD
infrastructures for the increased reliability, performance and TCO benefits that come with
flash-based storage solutions.
Thus the flash technology market needs to embrace the open source community and
contribute to the knowledge-base and capabilities that will make flash more relevant for use
with Open source in the cloud, hyperscale and enterprise data center markets. In this
session, Nithya Ruff will outline how companies can build a culture of open source within
their organizations in order to help vastly expand the number of flash-optimized open source
applications and solutions that customers can use within their enterprise and hyperscale
environments.
