Press release from: InfoAxon Technologies Limited

2005 was a year with a greatly accentuated interest in Open Source technologies and the benefits it provides to businesses world wide. However most businesses keen to explore Open Source based solutions have remained on the fringes as they are uncertain about how to adopt Open Source within their IT strategy and how to manage the risks involved.

To bridge this gap and help businesses introduce Open Source technologies within their enterprise architecture, InfoAxon Technologies Limited, a leading provider of Outsourced Product Engineering services has launched its Professional Open Source Consulting & Support Service packages to help enterprise integrate professional open source technologies into their current architecture.

“We are excited to augment our expert technical know-how on open source technologies with professional consulting and support packages which would eliminate risk out of the challenges that open source software model introduces into organizations, so that they can most effectively mange open source as an integral element of their long term IT strategies” says Shubham Nagar, Director and Professional Open Source Evangelist, at InfoAxon.

Shubham places lots of emphasis on the term ‘Professional’. According to him, “not all open source technologies & solutions are mature and robust to be used within the enterprise”. There also seems a deep interest in the open source model but also a genuine need to adopt a more risk-free, professional route to adopting open source as an alternative to proprietary solutions. InfoAxon distinguishes ‘Professional’ open source from any other open source technologies and solutions by defining a set of criterion that any open source must pass to be termed ‘Professional Open Source’. In other words, for an open source technology and solution to be ‘Enterprise Fit’, it must pass criterions like maturity of the open source project, clear licensing, an active developer community, modularity, use of open standards, quality support, easy setup & deployment, and easy administration etc.

Adding further to it, Nikhil Kapoor, InfoAxon, Director Technical, says “We solve real business problems for our clients by offering professional open source solutions which have been thoroughly researched and approved by our in-house technical experts”. “We have taken a leadership position in professional Open Source space by defining and implementing Open Source Maturity Model (OSMM) quiet early. This considerably reduces the risk attached with open source solution”, he adds quickly.

InfoAxon claims that its Professional Open Source services and solution provides various tangible business benefits to its clients apart from improving overall client productivity. Some of the benefits include:

1. Reduced application lifecycle costs
2. Reduced infrastructure costs
3. Slashed development & integration times
4. Eliminate vendor lock-in
5. Freedom to enhance & customize
