Participation at OW2 Consortium by Spago4Q, the open source platform to measure, analyze and monitor quality of products, processes and services

OW2 is a global open-source software community, whose goal is the development of open-source distributed middleware as flexible and adaptable components. These components range from specific software frameworks and protocols to integrated platforms. OW2 developments follow a component-based approach. The consortium is an independent non-profit organization, open to companies, institutions and individuals. OW2 mission is to develop open source software, to support a vibrant community and business ecosystem.

The Consortium hosts over one hundred technology projects, including Acceleo, ASM, Bonita, eXo Platorm, Funambol, JOnAS, Lomboz, Orbeon Forms, PetALS, XWiki and all the SpagoWorld projects: SpagoBI, Spagic, Spago4Q, Spago.

Since 2005 Engineering Group has been corporate member of the ObjectWeb Consortium and since 2007 it has also been a corporate member and co-founder of OW2 Consortium. Engineering Group seats at the OW2 Board of Directors and OW2 Technology Council and participates in many consortium lifecycle activities.
Engineering Group's strategy is to promote the durable and sustainable development of an ecosystem centred on open-source software through the support of an international open source community and focusing its road-map on industrial initiatives.
