Tidelift 的[第三次开源管理调查](https://www.tidelift.com/subscription/2020-managed-open-source-survey)发现，企业在大流行期间正在转向开源，44% 的组织报告他们将增加使用开源进行应用开发。


我们以前见过类似现象。在以前的经济衰退中，组织转向开源[以节省成本](https://blog.tidelift.com/the-third-wave-of-open-source-migration?utm_source=opensource&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=2020-survey)，并因[其它一些转型收益](https://blog.tidelift.com/theres-one-thing-stopping-developers-from-using-open-source-even-more?utm_source=opensource&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=2020-survey)而留下来。我们想了解哪些长期收益对不同规模的组织最有帮助。以下是我们发现的摘要。


**开源正在推动成本和时间的节约，同时提高效率。**68% 的组织提到的一个关键驱动力是节约资金和开发时间，因为使用开源减少了开发人员从头开始编写新代码的时间。近半数（48%）报告称，它提高了应用开发和维护效率。拥有超过 1000 名员工的组织更有可能将此作为鼓励使用更多开源的原因（61%，而少于 1000 人的组织为 41%）。

**在组织使用更多的开源的原因中，消除供应商锁定是一个重要原因。** 我们发现 40％ 的受访者将这视为主要原因。用开源软件取代昂贵的专有软件，可以确保组织更加灵活，避免对供应商的依赖。同样，规模较大的组织也倾向于这个原因。在拥有 1000 名以上员工的组织中，有 50% 的组织将此作为主要优势。


**增加开发人员的满意度是使用更多开源的另一个原因，有 31% 的组织提到了这一点。** 随着企业对人才的激烈竞争，他们了解确保开发人员在工作中和使用的工具中感到快乐的价值。调查发现，开发人员使用的前三种语言是 JavaScript（78%）、Python（52%）和 Java（41%）。


**此外，随着开源使用量的增加，83% 的组织继续对其贡献，近一半的组织制定了管理贡献的政策。** 这些政策包括：在工作时间对组织使用但不赞助或管理的项目的贡献、对他们赞助或管理的项目的贡献、在个人时间对与工作无关的（个人）项目的贡献、以及在工作时间对与工作无关的（个人）项目的贡献。


虽然向开源的长期迁移仍在继续，但很明显，COVID-19 的影响可能正在加速这一进程，组织继续从使用和贡献中获得更深层次的价值。

OK
Companies are turning to open source during the pandemic, with 44% of organizations reporting they will increase their use of open source for application development, finds Tidelift's [third managed open source survey](https://www.tidelift.com/subscription/2020-managed-open-source-survey).

We've heard this lyric before; in previous recessions, organizations turned to open source [for cost savings](https://blog.tidelift.com/the-third-wave-of-open-source-migration?utm_source=opensource&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=2020-survey) and stayed for its [other transformational benefits](https://blog.tidelift.com/theres-one-thing-stopping-developers-from-using-open-source-even-more?utm_source=opensource&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=2020-survey). We wanted to understand which long-term benefits were most helpful to organizations of different sizes. Here's a summary of what we found.

**Open source is driving cost and time savings while improving efficiency.** A key driver, cited by 68% of organizations, is saving money and development time, as using open source reduces the time developers spend writing new code from scratch. Almost half (48%) report that it increases app development and maintenance efficiency. Organizations with more than 1,000 employees are far more likely to cite this as a reason to encourage the use of more open source (61% vs. 41% for organizations with less than 1,000).

**Eliminating vendor lock-in is high on the list of reasons organizations are using more open source.** We found 40% of respondents cited this as a primary reason. Replacing expensive proprietary software with open source ensures that organizations can be more nimble and avoid dependency on vendors. Again, larger organizations favor this reason; 50% of organizations with over 1,000 employees identify this as a key benefit.


**Increasing developer satisfaction is another reason to use more open source, with 31% of organizations citing it.** As companies compete fiercely for talent, they understand the value of ensuring developers are happy in their work and with the tools they use. The survey found that the top three languages developers are using are JavaScript (78%), Python (52%), and Java (41%).

**Additionally, as open source usage increases, 83% of organizations continue to contribute to it, and nearly half have a policy in place to govern contributions**. These policies include contributions during work hours to projects an organization uses but doesn't sponsor or manage; contributions to projects they do sponsor or manage; contributions during personal time to non-job-related (personal) projects; and contributions during work hours to non-job-related (personal) projects.

While the long-term migration towards open source continues, it's clear that the impact of COVID-19 may be accelerating this process, and organizations continue to glean deeper value from using and contributing to it.
