The annual Future of Open Source Survey provides a report on the state of the open source industry and analysis of future trends. Now in its eighth year, this annual survey was supported by with over 45 collaborators, open source software industry leaders, and collaborating organizations, and compiles results from hundreds of respondents from the open source community.

8. ―This year‘s results signal an important shift in how enterprises
view open source – a shift that will have tremendous impact on the
future of development. Open source has proven its quality and
security, and reached the point of democratization and
proliferation. As such, organizations must – and, as our survey
shows, some of the more sophisticated OSS users have already
begun – changing the way they view their role. Understanding
that it‘s about more than just cost-cutting or any of the traditional
reasons to simply use OSS; it‘s about participating and managing
the logistical challenges to gain competitive advantage, attract top
talent, and influence project direction.‖

16. ―Open Source is enjoying a proliferation that starts with a growing number of new
developers at the grass roots. Many then go on to join enterprises who themselves are
engaging in Open Source projects. Further news in the survey shows enterprises now
organizing to contribute back more actively; as they realize the importance of Open
Source innovation to jumpstart careers and kickstart projects. As our survey continues
to show Open Source is consuming the software world as the inherent
quality, functionality, and increasingly ease of deployment creates a powerful
gravitational pull on people and industries. This self-reinforcing, virtuous cycle will
result in the most exciting applications having an Open Source foundation. Which is
why many of the leading technology areas such as cloud, big data, content
management and mobile are treating Open Source as their 'Foundational Platform.‘
Further, more new areas like the Internet of Things which requires interoperability and
extensibility can only be met by open source initiatives, hence the emergence of new
communities such as the AllSeen Alliance."

because of how quickly and cost-effectively OSS can help to
deploy projects. Due to budget constraints in recent
years, faculty and staff have been asked to do more with
less, so it makes sense to seriously consider open-source
alternatives when faced with making strategic decisions...In
addition, many incoming students…expect it to be part of the
