Open Source

We use many open source tools and systems to provide:

• a short time to market.
• quick project completion.
• good value for money.

We can help you with choosing and running open source software. For example we can install and configure a weblog or web portal for your company department or whole industry. You don't pay expensive licence fees and we help train your staff.

Here are some of the packages we are familiar with.

Perl		possibly the ultimate text manipulation programming language.
Apache		the most popular web server in the world.
Slash		a perl based weblog and html template tool. See Slashcode for more info
Jyve		a java based project from the Apache Software Foundation. Jyve is an interactive web based information store for such things as FAQs.
fop		a java and XSL based project from the Apache Software Foundation. fop essentially helps produce printable Adobe PDF files from XML data. We look after the main FOP FAQ
MySQL		a free RDBMs which is rapidly becoming one of the most popular for web based applications.
RedHat Linux		A distribution of the popular GNU/Linux operating system and associated programs. Do we need to say more?
