Symbiotic software: Open source and the value of integrated solutions
One of the interesting developments emerging from open-source computing ecosystems is a change from a ‘winner-take-all’ mentality to an understanding that many enterprises can flourish and profit together, even symbiotically.
The strength comes not from any one company and its hardware/software solutions; instead, it is the combination of the strongest suits from multiple companies, working together harmoniously, that can create the best solution for an enterprise, according to Steven Pousty (pictured), lead developer advocate at Red Hat Inc.
“There’s no right or wrong about where you are in the ecosystem; there’s what it right for your business problem,” Pousty said.
Pousty recently joined John Furrier (@furrier) and Peter Burris (@plburris), co-hosts of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile live streaming studio, during Cisco DevNet Create 2017, held in San Francisco, California.
In addition to discussing the industry’s evolving stance on open source, the trio also discussed how niche differentiation works in information technology much as it does in ecological systems. (* Disclosure below.)
A long-time foe of open source now a convert
Microsoft, which historically has denounced open source, today wholeheartedly embraces it. At the recent Red Hat Summit, Pousty served as the Red Hat representative for the Microsoft keynote, demonstrating several iterations of Microsoft hardware. First, he demonstrated Microsoft’s .NET Core running in Red Hat’s OpenShift container application platform on a Linux machine. Then he operated Microsoft’s SQL Server running in containers on OpenShift.
Since Red Hat and Microsoft are both involved in Kubernetes, an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling and management of containerized applications, for Pousty’s final demo, he showed a Windows container spinning up Microsoft IIS web server orchestrated from Linux OpenShift. He explained that the Linux OpenShift server was talking to and spinning up Windows containers on the fly.
“It’s definitely a sea change,” Pousty stated.
