Open Invention Network
(OIN), the largest patent non-aggression community in history with well over
2000 members, announced that Infosys has joined OIN as a community
member. As a leading IT services provider, and one of the most admired
companies in India, Infosys believes that open source software (OSS) is a
necessary enabler as enterprises worldwide use the Internet to build new
consumer-centric and connected applications.
“We are pleased to
have a premier global IT services firm, like Infosys, join the OIN community,”
said Keith Bergelt, CEO of Open Invention Network. “We appreciate Infosys’s
leadership in joining OIN, and believe that those that look to the company for
inspiration, both in and outside of India, will see the wisdom it has
demonstrated by supporting patent non-aggression in Linux and adjacent open
source technologies.”
“Open source software
has become the primary engine of innovation, and should now be viewed as the
key building block of all modern enterprise architectures. Innovation in areas like
cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, DevOps and modern web
frameworks are all happening in the open source ecosystem, and the adoption of
these technologies in enterprises is benefiting from the foundation of Linux
that enterprise IT departments have already invested in. Infosys is
actively taking open source, and open source based products, to all our
enterprise customers, and so we are extremely excited to become part of OIN,
and we encourage others to join OIN as well to support this very important
initiative.” said Navin Budhiraja, SVP - Head – Architecture and Technology,
Infosys.
