Aiven – Enabling Organizations to Drive Business Results by Using Leading Open Source Technologies

Technology should be carefully selected to actively grow business over the long term, so it requires careful consideration and foresight. Open source has been gaining popularity or a long time due to the benefits it comes with. Those who don’t know the difference between the two, open source software’s source code is available to everyone. Anyone can modify its code while proprietary software is owned by enterprises or individuals and its source code can only be modified by its owners. Enterprises that use open source software enjoy many advantages over those using proprietary software. Open source is a type of licensing agreement that allows users to freely modify a work, use said work in new ways, integrate the work into a larger project or derive a new work based on the original.

By removing barriers between innovators, open source promotes a free exchange of ideas within a community to drive creative, scientific and technological advancement. Although, it is most commonly used in the software industry, professionals utilize open source licenses in many industries: biotech, electronics, fashion, robotics and teaching to name a few. This article will focus exclusively on the software applications. Open source licensing encourages innovation through collaboration. Without it, many of the technologies we take for granted today would never have developed, or would be locked away behind patent law. The open source movement is the reason that technology has developed at such a breakneck pace for the past few decades.

Aiven is one such company that provides managed open source data technologies on all major clouds. Through Aiven, developers can do what they do best — create applications. Meanwhile, they manage cloud data infrastructure. It enables customers to drive business results from open source that trigger true transformations far beyond their own backyard.
