Open Resource: "Open source started out as infrastructure, but now its moving into applications like ERP, CRM and Business Intelligence. Why is this happening?
Open source appears where standards have emerged and software becomes commoditized. You see this within operating systems, compilers, databases, application servers and application environments. Increasingly, you'll see open source entering markets like business intelligence, CRM and ERP where required functionality is well defined and not technically challenging. Then it becomes a financial equation and open source offers TCO typically an order of magnitude lower than commercial products."
