Lessons from Leaders: How JBoss did it
,----[ Quote ]
| JBoss was an Open Source company providing
| free middleware software to itâs customers. By
| the end of 2003, JBoss had been downloaded 5
| million times, and the company was doing about
| $1m a year in revenues, selling training,
| documentation and consulting. Around that
| time, Bob Bickel joined the company, and
| initiated a process to raise venture capital.
| The raising of VC funds was a trigger that was
| needed to hire a professional management team,
| and to enter a new growth phase. Together with
| Bob, the company had figured out that once an
| application migrated from development to
| production, they could charge their customers
| for a subscription based initially around
| support, that should result in a better
| monetization than the other revenue streams.

| When youâre a big-time Java application engine vendor like the community side
| of Red Hatâs JBoss, JBoss.org, picking out a CMS (content management system)
