96% of French Public Sector Using Open Source Says New Service
,----[ Quote ]
| According to a French market survey, almost the
| entire public sector (96 %) is using open source. The
| most used applications are database management
| systems and content management systems.
|
| The research firm who carried out the survey
| presented a summary of its report on the use of open
| source in France on 17 September in Paris. The report
| is based on an online survey conducted during the
| summer of 2009 and followed up by interviews with 160
| IT project directors, heads of procurement and other
| IT decision makers, half of which are employed in the
| private sector and the other half representing the
| public sector. Another fifty interviews were held
| with IT vendors.
