Open-Source Softwarefor Collaboration & Cost Savings
“More and more we are seeing the federal government move towards open sourcedue to its increased security, reduced procurement times, largescalability...reduced cost to the taxpayers, and escape from vendor lock-in…
Open source will just continue to grow as the world moves to open storage (low-cost hardware with open-source storage management software that makes itperform as well as high-cost proprietary storage devices), open network (low-costhardware with open-source VoIP, routing, and switching software that make itperform as well as high-cost proprietary network devices) and open-sourcevirtualization (xVM and Xen cloud computing without the cost of proprietaryvirtualization and management software)
-Bill Vass, COO Sun Microsystems Federal, former CTO US Pentagon
