Open Source Software in India: A Concise History and Future
- 1. Ource OFTWAREOPEN CHETAN GUPTA ASU2013010100018 IN INDIA SOFTWARE ENGG. PRESENTATION
- 2. Introduction. Old is Gold . Wasn’t so popular , as of today After 2007 use of OSS has doubled every year , now 87% of companies are running open source software Future of Open Source Survey 2015
- 4. also called closed software is a s/w for which, along with the copy ,sells a license to use the software with variety of restrictions limiting your: • Usability , • Shareability • Modification , • Hardware specs . Proprietary Software.
- 5. Licensing in Proprietary Software. Something like this : Copyright (C) YoYoDyne Systems, Inc - All Rights Reserved Unauthorized copying of this file, via any medium is strictly prohibited Proprietary and confidential Written by Elmer Fudd <efudd@yoyodyne.com>, September 1943 This means you cant : • Copy the file • Print the file out, scan it and copy the image • Print the file out, take pictures of it and distribute the film • etc ... Agree with me or don’t Deal with me
- 6. People confuse open source and free software, software that may have been published on a blog or otherwise on a public domain is called a free software. the creator has a explicitly allowed modification or reuse of this/her code without any payment or even applying any licensing restriction on to the code . Both open source and free software are somewhat same but free software puts more emphasis on the freedom/rights to modify and redistribute the code as a free s/w . Free Software. DEAL WITH IT
- 7. Open Source Software. Open in terms of: • Free-freedom to redistribute • Access-to source code • Not Closed-modify and derive work • Reuse –must not restrict usability of other codes • Change –authors work • Any Place- any field of research • Any One-any person no discrimination
- 8. The issue is about freedom and not price. freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software. Thus, it should be free to redistribute copies, either with or without modifications, either free or charging a fee for distribution, to anyone, anywhere. Being free to do these things means that you do not ask or pay for permission. Open Source. Always Free?
- 9. Open Source Pros! Quick implementation and low cost of new features Security [myth that they are not secure]:community can check program to figure out any skeleton key or back doors and release patches to fix them Error checking benefits of having a huge community overlooking the development Lifespan of the program isn’t in the hand of company its in the hand of the community Better continuity (updates and maintenance ) than proprietary s/w
- 10. Open Source Cons! not manged properly then could create the scenario similar of having effective code under so complex UI that average user cannot understand. Clearity and modularity of contributed code, most contributed codes are not readable or modules i.e created side effects on other part of code. contribution in capsulation and isolations are not implements effectively not to mention that there's no tech support hotline reducing its usability
- 11. Why Devs Contribute? why developers contribute their valuable time to this movement , Some belief that everyone should have access to functional and secure software Others do it just for fun or to share little projects they created in their spare time and see what happens so then as others continue to modify them and others have actually found ways to make money by giving the software away and charging for o Support charging for optimized hardware or o Charging other companies sponsorship fees
- 12. Software Quality
- 13. Defect density (defects per 1,000 lines of software code) is a commonly used measurement for software quality, and a defect density of 1.0 is considered the accepted industry standard for good quality software The results come from the 2013 Coverity Scan Open Source Integrity Report. For the project researchers waded through over 37 million lines of open source software code and over 300 million lines of proprietary software code. Coverity’s analysis found an average defect density of .59 for open source projects , compared to an average defect density of .72 for proprietary code developed for enterprise projects.
- 14. Why There is Future of OSS Tech. #1. Community Size doubles every Year. #2. All enterprise are adopting Open Source Platform. #3. People can easly start with Open source projects. #4. OSS reduce Project Cost. #5. Give Competitive advantage . #6. improved efficiency and infrastructure . #7. Companies creates more innovation and tech. in OSS. #8. Base Tech behind Cloud , Content Manag. Libraries , mobile tech.etc #9. Platform behind Social Media such as Facebook , wordpress etc. #10. Growth in technology , medical and education.

Compliance to this policy is mandatory.
