Driving the InnerSource Program at SAP
Session Abstract
Open Source is great, but very few companies can afford to release all their source code to the world. Yet, it is still possible to benefit from open source best-practices and culture for in-house software projects and more. This exactly what InnerSource is. In session we will share about how we are driving InnerSource at SAP.
Session Description
SAP has a long history in software development and also on introducing InnerSource in the company. In this talk we will share what we have done so far, what we have learned and our challenges. This will include the setup of our InnerSource Program, practices, such as creating documentation, tooling (InnerSource Portal and Linter) and spreading the word through presentations and community work. We also want to debunk the idea that InnerSource is a detriment to open source, where it is actually more often a stepping stone.
