The 2015 North Bridge & Black Duck Future of Open Source Study reviews 2015 Future of Open Source survey findings in the context of 9 years of research. The 2015 Survey was led by North Bridge & Black Duck in collaboration with Jeffrey Hammond, Forrester Research & 41 organizations–startups, large vendors & global foundations. The survey received 1300 completed responses from IT & business professionals across industry. The 2015 findings demonstrate the pervasive nature of open source & highlight the abundance of organizations participating in the open source community. 78% of respondents said their companies run part or all of its operations on OSS & 66% said their company creates software for customers built on open source. This statistic has nearly doubled since 2010, when 42% of respondents in the Future of Open Source survey five years ago said that they used open source in the running of their business or their IT environments. The growing corporate usage is attributable to the advantages provided by Open Source. Advantages sited included attracting top IT talent & the ability to innovate & create competitive advantage. Comparing Open Source to Proprietary software, open source wins in features, ease of deployment, & ability to scale. In 2-3 years, some factors show Open Source as superior-Security, Quality, & Ease of Deployment among them. The trend of Open Source shaping the future of new technology & security continues. Cloud computing, Big Data, Operating Systems, & the Internet of Things rose to the top of the list. When evaluating security technologies for internal use, 45% of respondents said open source options are given first consideration. Open source means business. Among key business attributes, open source fuels innovation & impacts both revenues & margins. However, below the surface, the growth of open source has also exposed some of the governance gaps that need to be addressed: More than 55% of respondents said their company has no formal policy or procedure for open source consumption. Moreover, only 27% have a formal policy for employee contributions to OSS projects. A mere 16% have an automated code approval process & less than 42% maintain an inventory of open source components. More than 50% are not satisfied with their ability to understand & known security vulnerabilities in open source components, & only 17% plan to monitor open source code for security vulnerabilities Open Source continues to attract investments from the Venture Capital Industry in early stage investments & more recently via acquisitions. In 2014, there were 39 deals completed for $3.9B. Within its own portfolio, North Bridge holds $1.3B in Open Source companies. Despite the governance gaps found in the survey and the need to pay closer attention to policies - Pervasiveness is evident…. So WHO WILL BE THE NEXT GREAT OPEN SOURCE COMPANY? Let us know who & when you think it will be. Follow us @FutureofOSS #FutureOSS

10. “The numbers don’t lie. It has been another incredible year for OSS,
with organizations large and small adopting open source solutions in
greater numbers. The survey confirms what we’ve known all along, that
open source is driving innovation for the world's most successful
companies, and investors and Global 2000 brands are taking notice. As
one of the most trafficked websites on earth, weather.com’s adoption of
an open source platform is a testament that the old ways of delivering
digital experiences are being replaced by newer, more agile solutions.
The weather.com team gains the agility to deliver on customers’
increasing expectations, and is leading the way with contextual weather
insight that anticipates every user’s needs."

CASE STUDY FOR
weather.com by the numbers:
• 100 million+ unique visitors every month
• 50 million+ page views a day
• 20 million+ different pages of content
weather.com needed an open delivery platform to
help it adapt to fast changes in technology.
Millions of people rely on weather.com every day;
it is transforming how we interact with weather
news. People expect accurate weather forecasts
on-demand, and they want to be alerted to events
that may impact their life, work, travel, and
leisure.
weather.com started using Drupal last year to
deliver dynamic experiences for its site visitors to
meet ever-changing consumer demands. With
Drupal, weather.com gains the right combination
of agility and connectedness that allows it to
expand its platform and maintain quality at the
same time. Now it can better:
• Present contextual weather insight that
anticipates every user’s needs
• Create and distribute content quickly
• Ensure great performance through an elastic
cloud infrastructure

development. It is infiltrating almost every facet of the modern
enterprise and is outperforming proprietary packages on quality, cost,
customization and security. In the startup community we are seeing a
continued wave of open source born companies – the next wave of Red
Hat, Acquia and Ubuntu while at the same time seeing traditional IT
leaders such as H-P and Microsoft grafting open source DNA into their
core. In the coming years, we will see open source unlock the potential of
a new generation of technologies – the Internet of Things, big data and

SOLUTION
Discovery Education turned to NGINX
Plus for proper test environments,
evenly distributed and normalized traffic,
and 24/7 on-the-spot support from the
NGINX team, which includes access to
the core developers. The company
deployed NGINX Plus for streaming

business around OSS—delivering the always-on performance consumers

Migrating to LibreOffice is an

In order to ease the process and make

enterprises move beyond collecting Big Data for later analysis to driving

There was an urgent need for the client to
move numerous internal applications to open
source to grow revenue across multiple
divisions and ensure better application
performance, response time and flexibility.
The client selected Wipro for its knowledge,
expertise and deep experience in large-scale
open source-based project implementations.
Wipro’s open source team took ownership of
the transformation and consolidation,
implementing an open source adoption
strategy that helped migrate 300+ Java/J2EE
applications to private cloud, and adopt an
open source ESB platform based on Apache
Camel and JBoss Fuse technologies.
The financial services company was able to
seamlessly migrate applications and adopt
open-source in their environment, delivering:
• Faster time-to-market
• Increased scalability and flexibility of
existing applications
• Significant reduction in hardware and
software licensing cost
• More control of IT environment and
