Keynote Three Degrees of Separation: OS Technology Partnerships Marcel den Hartog, Marketing Program Director, Computer Associates Date: Wednesday, 19 October 2005 Time: 9:45 - 10:00 Location: Grand Ballroom The software industry value chain can be broken down into three broad segments. The first and the most mature is storage, which includes database and database tools vendors. The second is middleware, where the application server and security vendors play. The final segment is the application layer. Any technology solution will encompass each part of this value chain, and with thousands of vendors the network of relationships is becoming more and more important. This presentation will explore how open source vendors, particularly those in the storage and middleware segments, must take advantage of their network of technology partnerships in the value chain.
