Global Open Source Software Market Projected to Reach USD XX.XX billion by 2025- Intel, Epson, IBM, Transcend, Oracle, Acquia, etc. - WaterCloud News

One of the biggest hallmarks of PC gaming and something that consoles still have difficulty allowing is modding. Sometimes, modders have to bend over backward to apply some custom changes to a game, often coming at odds with the games developers or publishers, but there are many games that support modding right of the bat. EA Games, however, is going above and beyond what most major publishers do and will even release the open source code for Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun and Red Alert when their remastered versions launch next month.

This is very big news considering how major game studios are wary of open sourcing any part of their game (despite themselves using open source software for those games). Its a tricky legal situation that lawyers simply avoid by keeping code closed but EA Games wants to do right by fans of the 25-year-old C&C franchise, especially the still vibrant modding community that has grown up around it.

Open sourcing the code for the two major versions of Command & Conquer would allow modders to take a closer look at how the game was made and modify it to their hearts content. By choosing the GPL 3 license, however, EA Games is also doing more by making sure the code will be compatible with open source projects CnCNet and Open RA. And, of course, it could also help budding game developers see how one of the most popular RTS games was made.

Unfortunately, EAs announcement also comes with some sad but not unexpected news. LAN Play, which has also been a stable of the older C&C games and its mods, is temporarily out of the picture. Thats mostly because the requirement for testing LAN Play would mean gathering together and more or less violating social distancing measures. The good news is that the feature isnt completely off the tablet yet.

The Command & Conquer Remastered Collection celebrates the franchises 25th anniversary and is slated for a June 5th launch. Covering both the Tiberian Sun and its Red Alert sequel, the collection will rebuilt graphics, support for 4K resolutions, and all the fun FMVs the games became famous for. With open source code, EA Games is expecting both old fans and new modders to keep the brand alive with new ideas that they may have never even thought of or were not legally allowed to do.

Future Trends of Global Business Analytics and Enterprise Software Market to Access Global Industry Players like SAP, IBM, Oracle - Cole of Duty

SAN FRANCISCO, May 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --EdgeX Foundry, a project under theLF Edge umbrella organization within theLinux Foundation that aims to establish an open, interoperable framework for IoT edge computing independent of connectivity protocol, hardware, operating system, applications or cloud, today announced a major milestone of hitting 5 million container downloads and the availability of its "Geneva" release. This release offers more robust security, optimized analytics, and secure connectivity for multiple devices.

"EdgeX Foundry is committed to developing an open IoT platform for edge-related applications and shows no signs of slowing down the momentum," said Arpit Joshipura, general manager, Networking, Edge and IoT, the Linux Foundation. "As one of the Stage 3 projects under LF Edge, EdgeX Foundry is a clear example of how member collaboration and diversity are the keys to creating an interoperable open source framework across IoT, Enterprise, Cloud and Telco Edge."

Launched in April 2017, and now part of the LF Edge umbrella, EdgeX Foundry is an open source, loosely-coupled microservices framework that provides the choice to plug and play from a growing ecosystem of available third-party offerings or to augment proprietary innovations. With a focus on the IoT Edge, EdgeX simplifies the process to design, develop and deploy solutions across industrial, enterprise, and consumer applications.

Currently, there are more than 170 unique contributors to the project and EdgeX Foundry averages one million container downloads a month, with a total of 5 million reached last month, and rising.

"The massive volume of devices coming online represents a huge opportunity for innovation and is making edge computing a necessity," said Keith Steele, EdgeX Foundry Chair of the Technical Steering Committee. "With at least 50% of data being stored, processed and analyzed at the edge we need an open, cloud-native edge ecosystem enabled by EdgeX to minimize reinvention and facilitate building and deploying distributed, interoperable applications from the edge to the cloud. In 3 short years, EdgeX has achieved incredible global momentum and is now being designed into IOT systems and product roadmaps."

The Geneva Release

As the sixth release in the EdgeX Foundry roadmap, Geneva offers simplified deployment, optimized analytics, secure connectivity for multiple devices and more robust security. Key features include:

EdgeX Foundry works closely with several of the other LF Edge projects such as Akraino Edge Stack and new project Open Horizon. During this release cycle, EdgeX was made to work under the Akraino Edge Lightweight IOT (ELIOT) Blueprint and tested under the Akraino Community Lab.

Launched last month, Open Horizonis a platform for managing the service software lifecycle of containerized workloads and related machine learning assets. Open Horizon is building an integration project that will demonstrate delivery and management of EdgeX Foundry as a containerized solution in stages, beginning with a single deployable unit and then progressing to a more modular set of services and alternate delivery targets.

Support from Contributing Members and Users of EdgeX Foundry:

"To further enhance use in production environments, EdgeX Foundry's Geneva release brings simplified deployments and improved security," said Tony Espy, Technical Architect at Canonical. "With EdgeX available as a snap, this aligns to the fundamentals of snaps' core principles which allow developers to benefit from confinement and transactional updates to ensure deployments are secure and with minimal need for manual intervention. As the EdgeX ecosystem continues to see strong traction, we look forward to continuing our contribution to building an open, interoperable framework for edge computing."

"EdgeX Foundry's middleware solution is an important component of an open, vendor-neutral pipeline connecting IoT devices and their data to analytics and data management at the on-premise edge," said Joe Pearson, Engineering Strategy & Innovation Leader, Edge Computing, IBM. "This latest release underscores the importance of working within LF Edge to encourage interoperability as we build a comprehensive open edge computing framework, beginning with Open Horizon."

"With the evolution of IoT and edge computing, there is a growing realization to deploy and run compute engines near the data source in a truly globally distributed manner. This architecture requires running intelligent AI-based functionality at the edge while processing a significant amount of data at high-throughput and low latency on small form-factor devices," said Yiftach Shoolman, CTO and co-founder at Redis Labs. "EdgeX Foundry with Redis as the primary data store provides an open-source data platform to meet these expectations by combining in-memory data processing with modern data-models, and can be extended with a serverless engine and AI-serving platform."

EdgeX Foundry Hits Major Milestone with 5 Million+ Container Downloads and a New Release that Simplifies Deployment for AI, Data Analytics and Digital...

FRAMINGHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Two new reports from International Data Corporation (IDC) offer a first look at infrastructure stacks for Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications. In the reports, IDC defines an interoperable framework for infrastructure stacks to deploy AI applications, referred to as the AI Plane (AIP). The reports also discuss vendor-specific implementations of AI infrastructure stacks that are currently available in the market.

As building AI capabilities becomes increasingly urgent, IDC sees that businesses are confused about the process of building their own AI infrastructure stack. IDC is seeing a growing number of AI server, storage, and processor vendors develop AI stacks that consist of abstraction layers, orchestration layers, AI development layers, and data science layers that are intended to seamlessly operate together. These stacks typically combine open source software, proprietary software, and nonmonetized commercial software (such as CUDA) layers that are intended to help customers' IT infrastructure teams, developers, and data scientists collaborate on a predesigned stack without having to build it themselves.

IDC believes that AI infrastructure stacks provide a clear advantage to customers and that their variety is, while confusing, not a disadvantage. IDC does not expect vendors to collaboratively develop a "standard" AI infrastructure stack this would defeat the advantage for customers of having multiple flavors to choose from. By offering an AIP framework, IDC hopes to provide a guide for IT vendors, encouraging them to improve the versatility of their stack, thereby increasing its ubiquitous adoption.

"Businesses are benefiting tremendously from the AI infrastructure software stacks that server, processor, and co-processor vendors are making available, several of which we are highlighting in these reports," said Peter Rutten, research director, Infrastructure Systems, Platforms and Technologies at IDC. "But buyers should be aware of complexity and a lack of interoperability with these stacks."

"Infrastructure requirements for AI workloads can be viewed as a function of scale, portability, and time," said Sriram Subramanian, research director, Infrastructure Systems, Platforms and Technologies at IDC. "With so many choices and options available, end users are often perplexed about the right infrastructure stack. AIP provides a simple framework to select the right infrastructure stack, with accommodations to considerations on cost, flexibility, and infrastructure utilization."

IDC recommends technology buyers to thoroughly investigate the entire AI stack that server vendors offer and to explore options beyond their regular hardware supplier. IT benefits to keep in mind when examining reference stacks include reduced costs, data and application availability, effective infrastructure consolidation and, where possible, a single interoperable application delivery platform. IDC also recommends technology vendors to focus on interoperability among AI infrastructure stacks.

The IDC report, The "AI Plane": An Interoperable Framework for Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Stacks (IDC #US46283420), introduces AI Plane (AIP)an interoperable framework to select the right infrastructure stack to power AI workloads. The report also introduces two specific implementations of AIP: Open AI Plane and as-a-Service AI Plane. IDC recommends that enterprises leverage the AIP framework when selecting an appropriate infrastructure stack to power AI workloads.

The IDC report, AI Infrastructure Stack Review H1 2020: The Rapid and Varied Rise of the AI Stack (IDC #US46291620), assesses some of the AI infrastructure stacks that are currently available on the market, including the stacks offered by Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, Cisco, Huawei, and HPE.

Incumbent vendors are typically behind in providing cutting-edge features in network management tools. So, enterprises looking for advanced analytics and network automation will more likely find them in small vendors' products.

More advanced tools are critical to enterprises switching to software-based network management in the data center from a traditional hardware-centric model. Driving the shift are initiatives to move workloads to the cloud and digitize more internal and external operations.

In a study released this month, almost half of the 350 IT professionals surveyed by Enterprise Management Associates said they wanted advanced analytics for anomaly detection and traffic optimization.

Small vendors are addressing the demand by incorporating machine learning in network monitoring tools that search for potential problems. Examples of those vendors include Kentik and Moogsoft.

Besides more comprehensive analytics, enterprises want software that automatically configures, provisions and tests network devices. Those network automation features are vital to improving efficiency and reducing human error and operating expenses.

Gartner recently named three small vendors at the forefront of network automation: BeyondEdge, Intentionet and NetYCE.

Moogsoft is using machine learning to reduce the number of events its network monitoring software flags to engineers. Moogsoft does that by identifying and then hiding multiple activities related to the same problem.

"It really helps streamline" network operations, said Terry Slattery, a network consultant at IT adviser NetCraftsmen.

Kentik, on the other hand, uses machine learning to correlate network traffic flow data generated by switches and routers that support the NetFlow protocol, Slattery said. The process can identify sources of malware or other potential security threats.

Moogsoft and Kentik use machine learning to improve specific features in their products. Vendors have yet to deploy it in broader network operations, which would likely require significant changes in network infrastructure.

Today, companies prefer to work on provisioning, monitoring and making hardware changes on a large scale. After that, they might start adding "smarts" to the network, said Jason Edelman, founder and CTO of consultancy Network to Code.

Gartner also named Network to Code as a small vendor that enterprises should consider. The consultancy's client base includes 30 of the Fortune 500. The company specializes in the use of open source software for managing networks with a variety of vendor devices.

Among Gartner's other small vendors, BeyondEdge was the only one focused on the campus network, where it competes with behemoths like Cisco and Hewlett Packard Enterprise's Aruba.

BeyondEdge has developed overlay software for Ethernet switching fabrics and passive optical networks. The software lets enterprises create configurations based on business and application policies and then applies them at devices' access points. BeyondEdge sells its vendor-agnostic technology through consumption-based pricing.

BeyondEdge is best suited for organizations that need to provision many ports for different classes of users, Gartner said. Those types of organizations are found in commercial real estate, hospitality, higher education and healthcare.

Intentionet and NetYCE provide tools for data center networks. The former has developed open source-based software that mathematically validates network configurations before deploying them. "This is a new capability in the market and can simultaneously enhance uptime and agility," Gartner said.

NetYCE stands out for developing a straightforward UI that simplifies network configuration change management, network automation and orchestration capabilities, Gartner said.

"It provides a simple way for networking personnel -- who may be novices in automation -- to get up to speed quickly," the analyst firm said.

NetYCE's technology supports hardware from the largest established vendors. The company claims to provide adapters to nonsupported gear within two weeks, Gartner said.
