Abstract:
Open Source software has become a viable
alternative to maintream, commercial software. This talk will take
you through some of the open source software products used at my
company, The Family Health Network: why we use them, problems with
them, technical comparisons and price comparisons. I will also go
into detail about several non-headlining open source technologies,
including FreeBSD and PostgreSQL.
