Artículo: Systematic Literature Review: Success, Failure, Risks, Benefits and Barriers Factors in the Adoption of Open Source Software

Abstract:

The paradigm of Open Source Software (OSS) has revolutionized the way in which the software is used, marketed and distributed. Due to its strategic importance, in recent years, public administrations have defined plans for the promotion and strengthening of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) based on the use of OSS. These strategies have been recognized benefits and a wide social repercussion, given that the open and collaborative paradigm of the OSS phenomenon allows the use and diffusion of ICTs at all social levels. However, it limits the exploitation of the benefits of adopting OSS in the public, private industry and in the Ecuadorian society in general, due to shortcomings in the identification, assessment and risk management, in addition to good practices and adoption, the motive this project is to make a systematic literature review of the OSS adoption, based on Kitchenham and Charters methodological guide; this guide consists in a technique based on empirical research, which requires following a protocol to collect the literature on existing research, related to the free software adoption by organizations, for obtaining relevant references of success, failure, risk, benefits and barriers factors of adoption, in order to determinate the current situation of the OSS use in Ecuador.
