Open Source
Definition
Open source refers to software whose source code is freely accessible, modifiable, and redistributable. Linux, WordPress, React, and PostgreSQL are open source software. Unlike proprietary software, you are not locked into a vendor: you maintain control over your tools.
Why it matters for your business
Open source reduces licensing costs and eliminates single-vendor lock-in. For an SMB leader, it means the freedom to switch providers without losing your technical investment. It also means accessing cutting-edge technologies maintained by millions of developers worldwide.
