The Open Source Maturity Model

"The Open Source Maturity Model is a vital tool for planning open source success"
 Craig Murphy, Chief Technical Officer, Sabre Holdings 
 

Choosing the Right Open Source Product: Don't Leave it to Chance

As open source use in your organization moves from an informal, tactical initiative to a central part of your IT infrastructure, it's no longer enough to rely on hearsay to decide which products to use.

The key issue for mainstream IT organizations regarding open source is to assess which are the right products to solve their problems. It's important that these decisions use a structured process to objectively perform assessments -- a process that evaluates open source products in all critical dimensions: software, support, documentation, training, integration, and service availability. Only with a complete evaluation tool can you be confident you are choosing the right products for your organization.

The Open Source Maturity Model™ (OSMM) is a formal process to assess the maturity level of open source software. Developed by Navica, the OSMM is itself open source, freely available for any organization to use in their open source work.

Here's what one well-known analyst firm said about the OSMM:

"The Open Source Maturity Model is by far the easiest to use and the best documented"
 Assessing Open Source Software Projects, Burton Group Report, October 14, 2005 
 
The OSMM is open source and you are welcome to use it freely throughout your organization. You can download a complete set of OSMM templates by logging into our site.

Security Tip - Joomla

One challenge in Joomla! is to make sure that configuration.php is secure.
After the standard Joomla! installation the configuration.php file is located in the public_html directory, allowing potential attackers to have direct Internet access to it. Many user and developer organizations, including Apache.org and Joomla.org, recommend to move such flies to a location outside public_html.

The following procedure ensures that configuration.php, perhaps the most confidential file of any Joomla! site, is moved out of the public_html directory. This method protects configuration.php even if the Web server is mis-configured and somehow delivers the contents of PHP files.Read more...
