Red Hat Research Report Sample

In August 2009, Red Hat commissioned Forrester Consulting to examine the total economic impact and potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises may realize by deploying JBoss Enterprise Application Platform. JBoss Enterprise Application Platform includes open source technologies for building, deploying, and hosting enterprise Java applications and services. This study illustrates the financial impact of implementing JBoss Enterprise Application Platform for mission-critical applications by an organization that provides integrated voice and data communications.

Forrester found that the organization reduced its operating costs by cutting spending on annual maintenance and support for its Java platform and improved its IT productivity, resulting in shorter product-introduction times and increased revenue.
