FREMONT, CA: Open Source solutions are a much talked about technology and have made significant contributions towards developing smart IT products. But this concept rarely makes its presence felt in the IT business market. Open source provides the ability to develop custom solutions based on the needs alongside cost benefits. Several countries across the globe are strategizing to incorporate open source solutions into their government IT infrastructure. Though the absorption of open source software still in the early stages, companies providing software solutions have some serious thinking to do to tackle the wave of open source technology. For instance, several countries in Europe including UK are planning to replace the use of proprietary software for handling documents with the open source standards.
