Introduction to Software Licensing and Open Source Software

As Technology evolves and business models change, software licensing models have had to keep pace to ensure a balance of interests of the user and the solution provider. Some recent trends like mobile population, virtualized servers, subscription models, and internet enabled product delivery are impacting business models. With cloud, metered usage represents the next wave of change, where with changing market and business conditions, the needs of business and the technology they want to access changes and licensing terms should be dynamic to seamlessly accommodate such changes.

As a software developer, knowledge of various licensing models is important not only for securing the developer’s interests and rights, but also for ensuring compliance when using off-the-shelf stack modules. Understanding licensing terms and conditions is, therefore, imperative. The webinar will provide an introduction to software licensing and the various popular licensing models currently used in the industry. With the Government of India embracing Open Source Software (OSS) as a preferred choice for digital solutions, the webinar will also touch upon licensing issues related to OSS.
