Recession proofing engineering resources

,----[ Quote ]
| In challenging economic times, how do internal application development teams
| continue to deliver higher quality software and Web applications with fewer
| resources? Unlike in past economic downturns, development teams today have a
| resource they can turn to in order to lower the costs of development,
| maintain high-quality, and decrease cost of ownership for the long run: open
| source software.
|
| The use of open source, one of the most groundbreaking trends in the software
| industry, is more than just for experimental or for internal-use only. With
| experience in auditing billions of lines of code for Fortune 100 as well as
| start-up companies, Palamida has seen some of the most productive and
| cost-saving use of open source from market leaders across all industries.
