Open Source Leadership Summit 2018

Developing an open-source platform is completely different from developing a product using internal processes. Take inputs… the platform now has to include inputs from the community, including competitors and operators you’re not even working with – and if accepted, you have to implement them. And that (formerly internal) roadmap you’re building? It now needs to be aligned with the community. Open source also requires new skillsets, including emotional intelligence. So how does a company with no extensive open-source experience become a major community contributor/influencer, and a founding and platinum member of ONAP/LFN who is already working with early adopters AT&T, Bell, Orange?

Here, Amdocs shares its dramatic open-source transformation journey, including cultural change, modifying internal processes, best practices in-open source development, and its open-source vision.
