Call to use open source
Bangalore, Jan 19,2012, DHNS:
As more software developers and service providers increasingly turn to open source software for developing solutions and applications, they have the risk of using pieces of programmes that have restrictions in terms of license agreement.
Though open source developers approve free distribution of software, they are serious about their use in commercial products and solutions. “They may not restrict their source code or its usage, but they nonetheless would like licensing terms to be respected,” said Palamida CEO Mark Tolliver.
With nearly 70 terabyte of code being indexed –against which most of the available open source software can be checked-- Palamida’s solution mitigates risk of copyright infringement.
