About Open Source
Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) generally refers to a software development and deployment model that relies on the free availability, modification and redistribution of the software source code.
Businesses can realize benefits from adopting Open Source solutions in several critical areas, including both immediate savings through lower infrastructure, licensing costs and, generally, a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), and advantages resulting from improved security, reliability and scalability.
