Save My Seat
Open source software remains essential to enterprise technology strategies, but the forces shaping how organizations adopt and manage OSS are evolving.
The 2026 State of Open Source Report, produced by OpenLogic in collaboration with the Open Source Initiative and the Eclipse Foundation, analyzes survey responses from open source users across industries worldwide. This year’s findings point to a more mature open source ecosystem, alongside growing pressure from maintenance demands, security and compliance risk, and rising concern over vendor lock‑in and digital sovereignty. In this live webinar, open source leaders will discuss the key takeaways, technologies, and trends in the report.
What You'll Learn:
- What's driving OSS adoption in the EU vs. North America and other regions
- How maintenance and production workloads are affecting developer productivity, particularly in large enterprises
- Where organizations continue to struggle with security updates, vulnerability remediation, and end‑of‑life software
- How regulatory pressure and audit risk are influencing open source strategy and governance
Join us to understand what the latest data reveals about the current state of open source — and what it means for organizations deploying OSS at scale.
