The Cloud Effect
Trends during current recession
IBM Gives Cloud Computing a Seal of Approval
“As the recession puts pressure on tech spending, many
companies are turning to open-source software to handle more
IT tasks” – Business Week
Growth in U.S. tech spending may contract to 0.9% in 2009. IT
slow down helps new technologies like cloud computing – IDC
Open source providers like “Sugar CRM”, “Digium” and
“Zenoss” have posted record profits in 2008 – Business Week

Open Source adoption is growing and 26% of them have
more than 25% of their apps running on open source
Lower software costs — Open source solutions generally require no licensing
fees. The logical extension is no maintenance fees. The only expenditures are for
media, documentation, and support, if required.
Simplified license management — Obtain the software once and install it as
many times and in as many locations as you need. There’s no need to count, track, or
monitor for license compliance.
Lower hardware costs — In general, Linux and open source solutions are
elegantly compact and portable, and as a result require less hardware power to
accomplish the same tasks as on conventional servers (Windows, Solaris) or
workstations. The result is you can get by with less expensive or older hardware.
Escape vendor lock-in — Frustration with vendor lock-in is a reality for all IT
managers. In addition to ongoing license fees, there is lack of portability and the
inability to customize software to meet specific needs. Open source exists as a
declaration of freedom of choice.

Assumptions
I assume fairly baseline, server-class systems with a good amount of RAM and on-board RAID5 such as a Dell 2950 and a good load
balancer. The 3-year cost assumes a 10% cost of capital. I also assume a very cost-efficient managed services provider.
What more?
Forrester estimates that 80% of application requirements can be met
using only 25% of the features and functionality that closed source
commercial databases offer, which equates to about 60% of the
feature set of a typical open source database. Therefore, open
source databases are ready to support approximately 80% of
business applications
