Software security: There’s more to it than bug-bounty programs
Take full advantage of white-hat hackers to help you secure your code. And still do all the other security stuff you should do before you release your code

Enterprises are figuring out that they likely need different database engines to power different parts of their applications. AWS has figured that out, too
The irony is that what makes open source work—and differ from commercial software—is that only a few developers do the major work on any project
Although heavily dependent on Oracle today, Salesforce seems to be seeking database freedom—and its efforts could result in the same freedom for all enterprises
Linux has beat closed-source operating systems in every hardware category, but in mobile its Android derivative just can’t win in the ecosystem competition
New data debunks several myths around which companies lead in open source contributions
Oracle is a fantastic database for yesteryear’s enterprise applications, but is a poor fit for modern, big data applications
Most code remains closed and proprietary, even though open source now dominates enterprise platforms. How can that be?
Cosmos DB’s all-in-one-approach seems to be what developers really want, rather than an array of specific tools like AWS DynamoDB, Redshift, and Aurora
Google’s biggest strength is helping enterprises “run like Google”—something that even old-school companies have discovered they can now do
AWS, Microsoft, and Google are all racing to figure out how to turn their innovations into open source on-ramps to their proprietary services
Open source usage has skyrocketed, but not the number of developers working on projects. Those who benefit need to pay developers to keep it all going
Alibaba’s cloud is the No. 3 public cloud globally—not Google—and it seeks to displace AWS as No. 1. But in China it is protected from competition through government ties
To get the benefits of the cloud means tapping into proprietary ecosystems. But there is one way to lessen the impact: change agility
Open source contributions aren’t selfless charity but a virtuous intersection of corporate, user, and community benefit. Which is how AWS approaches open source
