The Business Value of JBoss Enterprise Application Platform - Presented by IDC

Organizations are under continuous pressure to cut costs and do more with less. At the same time, they are expected to be innovative and deliver increasing ROI. As organizations realize they can’t continue to run their operations and IT functions as they have in the past, they have also realized they can't meet expectations by building an infrastructure on closed-source, proprietary application platforms. They are too expensive, brittle, and complicated. As a result, open source application platforms are being evaluated as a viable alternative solution.

Red Hat commissioned IDC to study the business value of adopting the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform by interviewing 6 large U.S. based companies that used JBoss to develop custom applications and have been running the applications for at least 12 months. Benefits realized by these customers include:

Time to develop custom applications reduced by an average of 16 weeks (39%)

Developer hours for each application reduced by 24%

Infrastructure costs supporting application development reduced by 65%

Costs to manage applications post deployment reduced by 89%

569% ROI generated over a 3-year period

Initial investment paid back less than six months after deployment
