IT Consultancy
Ange Optimization has an in-depth knowledge and experience with the
offerings from both the Open Source community and proprietary solutions.
Open Source historically tended to be associated with amateurs giving their partially
completed software for free without any support. The current situation, however, is that high end
(or super) computing is dominated by Open Source.
Both when it comes to server technology, the desktop and SaaS,
Open Source is being supported by major players such as IBM, Google, Oracle, SAP to name a few. From a commercial point of view, the advantages are:
- The basis software is free
- It provides negotiational leverage when used in a combined proprietary / open source IT architecture
- It facilitates vendor independence due to the standardization and openness of interfaces
From a technical point of view the advantages are:
- The support is excellent and prompt
- There is no hassle with licensing legal paperwork and licensing servers on the basis software
- The software is open for inspection, and can easily be studied and understood
- The software is thoroughly and continuously tested by the existing user community
- The software evolves as the entire user community improves the software
The main areas of expertise of the Ange Optimization team include:
- Advisory and Guidance
