What’s the business case behind Open Source – a case study

The OpenStack Community provides not only software. You can also learn working plans, working methods or working tools, for free! Since a while the OpenStack Foundation propagates the Four Opens:

  • Open Source
  • Open Design
  • Open Developement
  • Open Community
