The journey towards “software-eating buildings” is paved with the bricks of openness. By embracing open standards, protocols, data, and development practices, the building automation industry can unlock new levels of innovation and value for building owners.

Integrating Interoperable Systems within a System of Systems: A Deep Dive

The phrase “integrating interoperable systems” might seem contradictory at first glance. After all, if systems are truly interoperable, shouldn’t they seamlessly work together within an SoS without requiring additional integration? While this logic holds, the reality is more complex.

The Open Source Revolution: Why Industries Are Collaborating Like Never Before

Open source is no longer a niche concept. It’s a powerful driver of innovation across all industries. By embracing open collaboration, companies can overcome challenges, reduce costs, and unlock new opportunities for growth. As the Linux Foundation continues to expand its support for open-source communities, we can expect to see even more transformative changes in the years to come. One of the most exciting aspects of this open-source revolution is the cross-pollination of ideas and best practices across different industries. For example, the energy sector is learning from the successes of the telecom industry in adopting open source for grid modernization and the integration of renewable energy sources.
