WHAT IS OPEN SOURCE?

OPEN SOURCE – is another way of designing, developing and distributing


a software, providing flexible accessibility of software source code. In
software development , open source software became popular with the
increase of Internet users and developed web-based applications. Thus the
term open source emphasizes “free-software” shared freely to the public.
ADVANTAGES OF USING OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE

FLEXIBILITY
AVAILABILITY
RELIABILITY
SHARED- FREELY
SOFTWARE UPDATES ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE
REDISTRIBUTION OF SOFTWARE MODIFICATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS
NO- REQUIRED FEES FOR SOFTWARE UPDATES AND VERSION
DISADVANTAGES OF USING OPEN SOURCE
SOFTWARES

 SUPPORT FOR SOFTWARE ISSUES ARE LIMITED AND NOT FREE


INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT
QUALITY CAN NOT BE GUARANTED
OPEN SOURCE DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

MySQL is an open source relational database management system


(RDBMS) which provides robust functionalities for managing information.
This database system can be integrated with open source testing servers
such as Apache. Moreover MySQL is used for free-software projects, which
requires highly practical database management systems. MySQL can be
installed in Linux, Unix, and Windows operating system.
FEATURES:
 CROSS- PLATFORM SUPPORT
STORED PROCEDURES AND TRIGGERS
STORAGE ENGINE SUPPORT
QUERY CACHING
SUPPORT FOR DATABASE REPLICATION

Benefits of using Open source Database Systems
In using open source database management systems, users can
expect the following benefits.

 RELIABILITY- users can expect that open source database systems


can perform tasks/ procedures in specified period of time. Maintaining
open source database systems is now an easier task since there are
available tools that can be downloaded for free to ensure database
performance and accessibility.
 STABILITY- In the business area, improving business outcomes will be greatly
achieved using stable open source database systems. Developers ensure that
database systems are continually checked in order to sustain user requirements
in transaction processing as well as making the software more stable and
efficient.

AUDITABILITY- allowing users to access code bases will help to easily identify
software bugs, which can be fixed by community developers of open source
databases. Moreover, transparency of system to external audits will provide
improved robustness and reliability.
COST- Open source database system are available for free. Software
projects normally consider cost as one of the important factor in software
development wherein open source database systems are highly
considered. In 2008, the number of software houses that uses open
source database system increased because it provides free licensing
under GNU/ General Public Licensing or Open-License Agreement which
lessens the cost of software development and maintenance.
