“When talking about success in open source, as a trailblazer you get a chance to chart your success. What’s important is to be able to quantify and show the business value of open source across the board.”

Having LFX come with our LF membership made it easy for us to walk stakeholders through a demo of the product to show that we had insight as to what was going on across our organization, so we were able to get company buy-in, and it made it a lot easier than piecing the information together ourselves.”

““The OSPO was a way for us to open doors to create the streamlining that was needed for our developers, who were previously restricted to their environments that they were working in and given tasks in. We needed to open that up but there was no Insights or LFX that was in place. Without that, we were left wondering who is already doing these things, who’s already trying to do these things.””

“As a developer if you’re working on a project that you want to keep for a long time what you don’t want to do is adopt a dependency or a library that within 6 months, 3 months, a year has been abandoned by the maintainers. And there’s no way to determine this, it’s like we’re just making a bet. Whatever information we can use to make that bet more insightful is useful.”
