Many analysts believe that open source software is the catalyst that is likely to restructure the industry, producing higher-quality software at lower cost.
Atos Origin is a major player in the area and offer specific services around open source software.
Our solutions include:
Technical Consulting
A multitude of applications are available in open source. Choosing which application to use, or even just deciding if it is worth looking to use open source software is a task that requires expertise and experience, which our Technical Consulting team can offer.
Open Source Consulting Practice
Atos Origin has built a genuine methodology to evaluate open source software called QSOS. This methodology and Atos Origin's experience in Business Consulting and Software Development have been combined in an Open Source Consulting Practice which helps companies define an open source strategy and investigate, if appropriate, which specific application to use.
Open Source Application Management
As open source is not new, open source based applications are supporting business critical applications. Supporting these open source applications requires investment and open source skilled resources with an understanding of infrastructure software like application servers, databases, web servers or even operating systems.
Building application management on top of open source allows our clients to protect investments and limit software replacement to a strict minimum.
Open Source Software Support
Open source applications are often not supported by any company or person. Relying on best effort or good will might not be seen as appropriate when the business might be dependent upon the successful software operation.
Atos Origin is able to provide support on the most used open source software. As an example Atos Origin is supporting JBoss for the French Ministry of Finance.
Open Source based Development
As a major software integrator, Atos Origin is using open source tools to perform its own developments. The know-how gained in building such environments can be used to build similar platforms for customers.
