14. How to Calculate Open Source Savings

16. Increase Cost Savings with OpenLogic

17. Cost Considerations for Open Source Hard Costs Soft Costs Costs to find, evaluate and certify open source. Tip: Create a central repository of certified open source Sourcing Costs to support open source Tip: Shop around, open source support is a competitive market Support Zero cost (typically) Tip: There are some commercial OSS companies that do charge a license fee for “enterprise” editions. Licensing Costs to manage open source in production Tip: Commercial support contracts can reduce these costs IT Services Costs to review open source licenses and requests to use OSS Tip: Automate governance processes & maintain an audit trail Compliance & Legal Open Source Cost Considerations Areas

18. Example: Hard Cost Savings with Open Source Assumes: DB, App Server and Web Server (12 CPUs each) SOA Suite (8 CPUs) and BI Suite (4 CPUs) 88% $450,000 $3,712,800 Hard Cost Total 77% $450,000 $1,944,800 Support (5 yrs) 100% - $1,768,000 Licensing Commercial Proprietary Use OSS with OpenLogic Savings Commercial vs OL Costs

21. Open Source Migration Opportunities

25. Proprietary vs. Open Source: 4 Key Categories Application Server Database SOA/ESB BI/Reporting WebSphere WebLogic Oracle DB2 Sybase WebSphere ESB TIBCO Sonic Fiorano iWay Business Objects/Crystal Actuate IBM/Cognos JBoss Tomcat Glassfish Geronimo MySQL PostgreSQL HSQLDB ServiceMix JBoss ESB CXF ActiveMQ Mule Jasper Reports Pentaho Mondrian Weka

26. Application Server WebSphere, WebLogic Commercial Start with departmental apps, minimal integration with proprietary systems Quick Hits JBoss, Tomcat, Glassfish, Geronimo Open Source Alternatives Medium, depends on features used Ease of Migration Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) Standards

28. SOA and ESB WebSphere ESB, TIBCO, Sonic, Fiorano Commercial Possible to integrate local SOA/ESB tools with central ESB; New projects Quick Hits ServiceMix, JBoss ESB, CXF, ActiveMQ, Mule Open Source Alternatives Medium, depends on use of proprietary extensions, routing, plug-ins, etc. Ease of Migration JMS, SOAP, SMTP, FTP, HTTP, BPEL, many others Standards

29. Business Intelligence and Reporting Business Objects/Crystal, IBM/Cognos, Actuate Commercial Start with open source reporting for department or division Quick Hits Jasper Reports, Pentaho, Mondrian, Weka Open Source Alternatives Difficult if reports must be rewritten Ease of Migration SQL, no standard for report design Standards
