Solutions to Mitigate Risks Associated with Open Source
Using open source software in enterprise applications can be risky. Without quality assurance or on-call technical support, those applications are more likely to malfunction and cost you in valuable time. That could also mean lost revenue, disappointed customers and a tarnished reputation. Even worse, licensing open source components improperly can result in costly and embarrassing legal battles.
That’s why companies like Cisco, HP, Siemens, Bank of America, Boeing and NASA trust ActiveState's solutions for Perl, Python and Tcl.
