Significant paradigm shift towards open-source software, owing to the requirement to gain competitive edge and enhance their operational productivity is expected to drive market growth. Some of the major technology players that include Amazon, Google, IBM, Facebook, Walmart, and The Linux Foundation have made substantial strategic developments towards these platforms.
