A carefully designed IT infrastructure is crucial for fostering productive, effective business operations. Managed properly, Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) can provide organizations with IT solutions that eliminate expensive licensing arrangements while offering software that is flexible, customizable, and capable of handling even the most advanced computing tasks. From running an in-house computer system to providing the best web-based applications and development tools, FOSS can deliver business results.
This free seminar at The Franklin Institute will help familiarize you with FOSS. We will survey some of the thousands of available FOSS applications and show how they might help your organization. We will help you understand the communities in which FOSS is built and supported. After introducing FOSS and explaining its ubiquity in running some of the Internet's busiest sites, we will explain how you can build web applications on FOSS and even how to run a FOSS-based desktop. To conclude we will pull it all together: how to implement and manage FOSS solutions to meet your business needs and lower costs.
