Open Source Processes at SAPOutbound and Inbound


Open Source Best Practices at SAP

For Outbound Open Source projects (contributions initiated by SAP)

Consider Open Source alternatives even for traditional scenarios such as Co-innovation with partners Sharing sample code with customers

Standardize on Apache 2.0 as the Open Source license

Use GitHub for project staging and community engagement before submitting to other foundations

For Inbound Open Source projects

Maintain repository of pre-approved Open Source components along with usage data

Standardize on a single version of any given Open Source component as much as possible

Apache OlingoSAP initiated project for OData client and server side libraries


Binary API doesn’t work over the Internet(ODBC, ADO.NET, JDBC…)

Internet is HTTP!

HTTP + SQL

OData as the SQL for the Web

Unlock Data silos

http://ADO.NET/


OData Protocol

Server

Producer

Client

Consumer

.NET, Java, Ruby, PHP …

.NET, iOS, JavaScript, Java, Ruby

Excel, Tableau, LINQPad, PowerShel, OData Explorer

Azure, MySQL, AppEngine, SAP, IBM, Oracle


Why does SAP care for OData?

Unleash the business data and enable its consumption from anywhere

Enables SAP partners and customers to consume SAP applications and innovate faster RIA using Javascript client libraries (e.g. OpenUI5) SDK used by mobile devices or other applications

Internal adoption within SAP leads to efficiency and consistency in developing integrated solutions

OData as an industry standard and Apache Olingo as its standard Open Source implementation


Apache Olingo – Status, Activities

Developed at SAP, evolved on GitHub, and then submitted to Apache

Top Level Apache Project with transparent and rigorous processes

Everything is done on mailing lists (it’s the norm at Apache)

Single negative vote can stall a release

Community Momentum

Microsoft datajs is now part of Olingo

Plans to support libraries in other languages and implement V4 version of the OData standard

Continuous development

In the 3 month (by Jun end), there were 500 messages, 2000 commits by about 10 Committers

OpenUI5SAP initiated Open Source UI framework


What is Open UI5?

JavaScript UI library

Huge number of UI controls

MVC, data binding, templating, …

“Enterprise-grade”

Most current browsers and (touch) devices

Responsive design

Is Open Source, uses Open Source


Why did SAP Open Source the OpenUI5 project?

SAPUI5 was closed, but…

We are Open Source fans, ~30 other OS libs in UI5

SAP community pushed for it

Closed source

Hinders speed of adoption

Increases TCO: costs of training, maintenance

Limits innovation

Dec 11th, 2013: OpenUI5 is born as Open Source
