OpenGeo Announces the Release of the OpenGeo Suite at the O'Reilly Where 2.0 Conference
OpenGeo, a leader in open source geospatial software development and support, has recently announced that it will offer total integrated support packages for the OpenGeo Suite. The flexible web-mapping stack bundles the best open source geospatial software into a fully supported package. The OpenGeo Suite includes supported versions of the OpenLayers map component, GeoServer application server, and PostGIS spatial database, allowing customers to support a complete open source web-mapping stack under a single contract.
OpenGeo has an open pricing structure, and clients are encouraged to tailor their support hours to meet their unique needs. Every client gets access to core developers of each component of the OpenGeo Suite. OpenGeo has committers on all the projects it supports, ensuring that bugs will get fixed quickly - usually on the order of days or hours instead of weeks or years.
"The support we provide with the OpenGeo Suite gives our clients real peace of mind," OpenGeo President Chris Holmes said. "We take the risk out of open source, guaranteeing that the software operates as it should and aggressively fixing issues as they arise."
