Synopsys reports that 95% of codebases contain open source, and of those codebases, 75% of the code is open source. Viability; as a metrics model in the CHAOSS community; provides tools to inform strategic business decisions about open source use and investment. We evaluate open source at milestones such as when initial decision to use/or not use, or at points in time where investment through contribution ensures ongoing security and sustainability. Viability metrics can identify key moments when open source projects require focus and investment. Viability also provides measures for tracking impact of this focus and investment, both for OSS and for internal goals tracking. With metrics, we can make decisions about when it’s the right time to contribute back to communities that have too little support, and when to subsidize the work that our critical projects depend on. Join Dr. Dawn Foster (CHAOSS), Matt Germonprez (University of Nebraska at Omaha/CHAOSS), Emma Irwin (Microsoft), and Gary White (Verizon), as they discuss the approach, complications, failures, and successes of measuring viability and de-risking applications.
