Agenda • Introductory remarks- Carl Bunje, Graham Bird & Walter Stahlecker • Open Source and Enterprise Architecture- Issues, Challenges, Opportunities- Open Discussion • Break • Best Practices - “Open Source in the Enterprise”, Stormy Peters, HP - Open Discussion • Next Steps- Elaine Babcock, Carl Bunje & Walter Stahlecker • Break • After Hours: BoF on Open Source
Scope of this session • Focus on Issues and Opportunities for Strategic Use of Open Source in the Enterprise • Many places exist to talk about technical merits -- • Political issues are seldom discussed ** • Strategic use of Open Source is still nebulous *** • Example: TOGAF and Open Source • TOGAF is a strength of The Open Group • TOGAF establishes Architectural discipline • Actual requirements • Business case • Integration • Is this a way to maximize ROI from Open Source? • How can TOGAF be applied to Open Source process? • How can Open Source process be incorporated into TOGAF? Scope Discussion Synthesis
Open Discussion • Introductions - Round robin • Personal Interest • Company Interest • Hopes & Expectations • Directions & Solutions • Discussion – What are your opportunities of interest • Methodology – TOGAF, etc. • Business case guidelines, ROI, etc. • Projects of potential interest to Open Group members • Others? • We will then synthesize these inputs • Prioritize items which would help make Open Source a strategic element in Enterprise Architectures • Identify structures needed for further progress • Volunteers? • Next steps (through 2003) Scope Discussion Synthesis
Open Source Opportunities/Next Steps – Open Discussion • Identify total cost of ownership • Security common criteria for open source • Certification/vetting for open source-developed products • The Open Group as a trusted distribution source? • Identify business imperatives that open source can solve • Ability to attract developers & save licensing costs • Gather examples of successful implementations • Education – special purpose conferences, publications, better/broader media exposure • Identify open source building blocks components of architecture • Authorized guidelines for open source implementation • License guidance & clarity • Conformance within open source philosophy
Open Source Opportunities/Next Steps – Open Discussion • Respect IPR while working open source • Impact of methodology & process on ability to accomplish objectives • Selection of a core set of open source components • Working together/teamwork for benefit of all
Open Source Opportunities/Next Steps - Summary • Build the open source business case/total cost of ownership/IPR/other legal issues • Architecture – develop open source building blocks • Risk mitigation/management definition & development • Education – success stories to broader audience • Integrate existing applications into a single platform • Open source standards, policy, process definition & maintenance • Management, evolution, & certification mechanisms
Potential Work Items • Develop guidelines for establishing the business case for Open Source • Technology vendors • Customers • Develop managers‘ guide for Open Source in the Enterprise • Develop guide for Open Source risk management • Develop TOGAF guidelines for use of Open Source Building Blocks in architectures
