open source Software- Breaking the commercial myths

Atul Sharma

Open source technologies need no formal introduction. In a technological era where major giants like Microsoft are coming up with new versions of their software in each quarter, there are open source players like Ubuntu, which are gaining popularity at amazingly crazy rates. Global community consisting of thousands of best brains in this world are coming up together to build up robust Open Source technologies which are in no way lesser in features when compared to their commercial counterparts. In fact if we go out and ask Open Source enthusiast, we find that they are far more efficient, reliable, and over all customizable. From IBM to Google, Firefox to Wikipedia – some of today's best software is based on an open-source model [1]. Open Source communities like Ubuntu share the principle of “Shared efforts. Shared principles. No cost.”, that’s why what we get is a world class “free” software.
