Open source refers to software whose source code is publicly known and can be viewed by third parties. The software can be modified by any user and can usually be used free of charge. The programming language Python or the relational database management system PostgreSQL are popular examples. The advantage of large projects like Python is the increasing use by companies like Google or Facebook. Tech companies also support open source projects from their own resources to ensure the continued support of the technology.
Open Source
Why does soxes use Open Source?
The advantage lies in the open code. This can be adapted during the development of a new application if necessary. In addition, the components, which can usually be used free of charge, reduce development costs. To increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of projects, soxes therefore relies on components with open code wherever possible. Many large open source projects are backed by large companies that support development and support. For example, Google and many other tech companies are behind Python.
Where has soxes used Open Source?
soxes uses technologies and software with open code on a daily basis and uses them in many projects. For example, soxes chose the PostgreSQL database management system for the development of the medication management system for Wiegand AG. With the powerful DBMS, the performance requirements could be met and development costs reduced.
