Open Source Best Practice: Take Inventory & Create a Policy
The benefits of open source software are clear -- lower costs, increased innovation, increased productivity and faster time to market. But in order to mitigate related risks, companies must ensure compliance with internal policies and open source licensing terms.
The OpenLogic Open Source Governance JumpStart program is a three-step process that helps enterprise organizations discover what open source is being used in the organization, then define and implement open source software policies to help reduce risks, manage use, and maximize the value of open source.
Step One - Inventory
The first step is creating a complete and accurate inventory of the open source already installed on systems within your organization.
The OpenLogic Discovery tool finds installed open source software on Windows, Linux and Solaris workstations and servers. OpenLogic Discovery finds 900 of the most commonly used Java-based development tools, libraries, and server applications. An easy-to-use graphical interface provides an instant inventory of individual systems. A command line interface allows enterprises to scan multiple systems remotely, without user interaction, using existing software distribution systems or software asset management systems.
