BT looks to open source to increase innovation
,----[ Quote ]
| BT is seeking to increase innovation in its
| IT functions through the gradual

| philosophical change" by making all its
| software development open, "just as it is,
| in fact, at Google".

Midmarket Leads Open-Source BI Adoption
,----[ Quote ]
| A recent Aberdeen Group Inc. survey found 48
| percent of open-source BI users have annual
| revenues of $50 million or less, whereas
| only 37 percent of the users of
| traditionally licensed BI products are that
| small.
|
| Of the more than 300 organizations surveyed,
| almost 90 percent said they were using open-
| source BI software alongside more
| traditional BI software. Cost savings,
| better hardware utilization, and innovation
| were cited as the top three motivators for
| adding open-source to their software
| portfolio.
