The Evolving Role of Open Source in Digital Experience IT stacks - From Start-Up to Enterprise

The majority of companies these days use open source software for at least part of their Digital Experience tech stack. As a CIO, you might be faced with skepticism towards the further adoption of open source technology, especially for parts of a DXP traditionally seen as more risky or vulnerable to attack. Indeed, you might be skeptical yourself. 

Dries Buytaert (founder of Drupal & Acquia) will host this dinner with the aim to provide advice and discussion around the following topics: 

  1. While organisations may be comfortable using an open source CMS, they may perceive using open source for other parts of their tech stack as a security risk. What parts of a DXP might fall into this category?
  2. How might implementing open source software impact the culture of your team? Is there a correlation between using an open source software vendor and the quality of tech support provided? 
  3. We know in theory that open source software is easier to scale for company growth or contraction. How does this operate in practice? 

You will be encouraged to share any experience you have with expanding the use of open source technology within your organisation. Equally, please come prepared to share any problems you faced relating to these discussion points with the hope of helping others.
