Introducing Ovum's open source reports
March 06, 2007
Most people reading this will not be aware (or care too much) that CBR's parent company Datamonitor recently acquired telecoms, services and software analyst firm Ovum.
One of the interesting things about this is that I now have access to some top quality analyst reports on open source software that were previously not available to us.
I'm not at liberty to publish anything here of course, but I thought a bit of free advertising wouldn't go a miss. Here's a list of some recent research reports that readers might find worth investigating further:

As I get a chance to read through these reports I'll be investigating the potential of sharing some of the insight with you.
In the meantime, CBR retains its independence of course. There are lots of other decent analyst firms out there with interesting reports too - they just haven't given me access to all their research right now.
