Enterprise Open Source Session Top Five Mistakes to Avoid in Migrating to Open Source
Top Five Mistakes to Avoid in Migrating to Open Source
Feb. 21, 2006 09:00 AM
This session will detail a best-practices approach to enterprise adoption of open source software, focusing on five common migration mistakes and recommendations for successfully avoiding them. We will cover the characteristics of open source offerings that make them especially suitable for enterprise adoption, including licensing structure, feature equivalency with commercial counterparts, enterprise-class feature sets, the origin of the open source code, and compatibility with the existing engineering skillset and IT infrastructure. Then Andy Astor will cover the characteristics of ideal open source vendors, including their support organizations, direct knowledge of the code base, relationship with the community and ability to provide meaningful indemnities.
