http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/eps/synopsis.cgi?acqid=150041"•Leverage open source to drive down cost of software...
1. We will strive for vendor independence through the use of open
source software. 2. We will prefer COTS, GOTS and Open Source
solutions over custom built solutions. This includes cloud offerings.
3. Open standards based solutions will be utilized over closed
proprietary solutions. 4. All applications will expose their data and
functionality through service interfaces....
