Description
Speaker
Open source benefits can actually be very difficult to realize, even for heavy users of open source. Many enterprise companies are finding that their open source vendors feel similar to old fashioned "licensed" software providers. Licensing of open source projects often determines what you pay open source vendors downstream and whether you become "locked-in" or not. Having a simple strategy related to open source is key.

During this webinar, we will cover:
- The major types of open source licenses and their pros and cons
- Other important factors in evaluating an open source offering such as governance and ecosystem
- How to create a good open source strategy
