open source

Perforce Software, in partnership with the Eclipse Foundation, has released the findings of the 2025 State of Automotive Software Development Survey. The report provides key insights into the current practices and emerging trends within the automotive software industry, including the use of open source software. The survey, conducted in Q4 2024, gathered responses from more than 650 automotive development professionals worldwide.

The report uncovers challenges related to open source support and Big Data management: Organizations using EOL software were almost three times more likely to have failed a compliance audit last year and 47% of organisations that handle Big Data expressed low confidence in the administration of those technologies.

Adoptium is happy to announce the immediate availability of Eclipse Temurin 8u442-b06, 11.0.26+4, 17.0.14+7, 21.0.6+7 and 23.0.2+7. As always, all binaries are thoroughly tested and available free of charge without usage restrictions on a wide range of platforms.

It's time to reflect on the strides we've made in enhancing the security of our open source projects in 2024. 

The Eclipse Foundation has long been a leader in driving open source innovation across IoT, edge computing, and embedded ecosystems. This highlights our role as a hub for collaborative innovation in embedded technologies, especially at the intersection of software and hardware.

Eclipse Temurin has reached over 500 million cumulative downloads as of October 31, 2024!

As we approach the Open Community Experience (OCX), scheduled to take place from 22-24 October in Mainz, Germany, my anticipation and excitement continues to build. This event marks a new chapter for our community, with a fresh conference format that I believe will bring even more value to all of us.

Supported by leading open source foundations and global technology companies, the new working group aims to streamline regulatory compliance for the open source ecosystem.

The survey, which will close on November 1, asks questions related to the day-to-day use and management of OSS, as well as governance and maturity. Response data will be compiled into a detailed report, with sections focused on different technology categories and topics such as security and compliance.
