10 ideas about integrating open source into your IT infrastructure
,----[ Quote ]
| At the Open Source Business Conference
| (OSBC) this year I did a presentation called
| âAsking the hard questions about open source
| software.â Iâve been expanding on some of
| the areas I mentioned and have previously
| posted the blog entries â10 elements of open
| source governance in your organizationâ and
| â10 considerations for maintaining open
| source in your organization.â

Business Intelligence Alternatives 'Good Enough' for Many Users
,----[ Quote ]
| While lower upfront cost isn't the only
| reason to consider open source software,
| it's one that initially gets the attention
| of many organizations. (I guess most of us
| are no different. When I'm shopping, I
| generally head to the clearance racks first.
| Who wants to pay full price if you don't
| have to?)
|
| In fact, with a continued emphasis on
| reducing IT costs, organizations are
| "obliged to at least evaluate open source as
| an alternative" to traditionally licensed
| software, said David White, a senior
| research analyst for The Aberdeen Group,
| when I interviewed him about his recent
| report, "Open Source Business Intelligence:
| The Cost, Utilization and Innovation Factors
| that Matter."

Market finally catching up with OSBI
,----[ Quote ]
| Open source business intelligence (OSBI) burst
| onto the market several years ago, but only
| now are we starting to see signs of real
| traction among enterprises at both âendsâ of
| the BI spectrum - front-end reporting and
| analysis, and back-end data integration. This,
| coupled with growing awareness, acceptance,
| and commercial product development, will help
| push OSBI into the corporate mainstream.
