The Business Case for Earlier Software Defect Detection and Compliance

Regardless of the industry your business operates in, software is likely all around it. Software powers our cars, airplanes, and even the medical devices we rely on to diagnose and treat illness.

Software makes once-impossible things possible and once-difficult things easier. Software helps businesses in the oil and gas industries remove the guesswork and reduce the cost of finding new deposits; it helps patients safely and automatically inject life-saving medications like insulin.

The Chevy Volt electric automobile has 10 million lines of software code, which actually isn’t all that much compared to many new cars (as we’ll see later) but it’s significantly more than the 1.7 million lines of code in the F-22 Raptor fighter aircraft.

The fact is, there’s no such thing as bulletproof, bug-free, automatically license compliant, and easily auditable software. Not in the open source world and not in the commercial off the shelf (COTS) world.

Software Budgets, Waste & Shifts in Software Licensing

Enterprise software counts among an organization’s most strategic assets. Therefore it is not surprising that software comprises one of the largest line-items in most organizations’ IT budgets. As enterprises rebound from the “great recession,” they continue to look for ways to be agile, lean and efficient.
