This IDC study, which is a translation of the Japanese report IDC #J9370102, explores the usage trends of open source software (OSS) and analyzes the types of OSS used, reasons for implementation, issues faced by users, and the implementation trend in the future.

"Companies are forced to cut their IT spending due to the worsening economy as a result of the financial crisis in 2008. Amid this situation, companies increasingly expect the use of OSS to reduce costs. By actively proposing the use of OSS, vendors and systems integrators (SIs) can satisfy users' needs to reduce costs and, at the same time, set themselves apart from other competitors. It is thus important for vendors and SIs to clearly define the support for OSS and select the OSS to be used," analyzes Mitsuhiro Iriya, market analyst, Software, IDC Japan.
