Open-Xchange to Launch Open Data Cloud
,----[ Quote ]
| Data and personal content exists in many different silos across the Internet,
| amd getting them all into a single interface and sharing them is no easy
| task. One potential solution to the problem is set to be demonstrated next
| week by open source software vendor Open-Xchange with an approach that uses
| semantic microformats as a mechanism for sharing and publishing data in a
| collaborative manner.

Open source middleware: the time may be ripe
,----[ Quote ]
| Another advantage to the open source approach is that products get designed
| and tested based on the input of a broad community. “FUSE and ServiceMix are
| developed in a very diverse community,” Debbie says. “Because of that, you
| see a lot of requirements come in from people that are in different types of
| environments. So, inherently, you’re going to be able to support a lot of
| different technologies. It really does require you use open standards, and
| align by the standards.”

Hypertable Lead Discusses Hadoop and Distributed Databases
,----[ Quote ]
| At the time that we started on the project, an open source Bigtable
| implementation did not exist, so we decided to build it ourselves. The reason
| that we chose open source is because we felt that an open source
| implementation of Bigtable would be inevitable. By leading the development
| effort, we would have a leg up on the competition in terms of knowledge,
| expertise, and credibility.
