Clayton Christensen has some superb insights on Modularity vs Integration in “The Innovator’s Solution”. I wrote about this for Upstarta.biz. Particularly in the realm of Open Source, modularity is regarded as a panacea – a product, service or design must be modular. But modularity is not better (or worse) than integration. Like tools, they each have their place, depending on the state of the marketecosystem where the processproductservice operates. Part of a system can be in a modular phase,microsoft office Enterprise 2007 activation key, where another part of the same system needs integration,windows 7 home premium 64 bit!
In this context,office 2010 Professional, think of an Open Source project or company’s ability to handle contributions. If the process of interaction between a contributor and the core is not (for whatever reason) clearly defined and predictable, it won’t work. Jamming an additional [in this case external, but that's irrelevant to the issue] interface for contributions somewhere in existing business processes can be doomed to fail.
We see the results of this in many projects that are Open Source, but find themselves unable to process contributions, or just don’t get any contributions. It’s quite likely that the underlying cause is not apathy (from the contributor’s end) or malice (from the receipient’s end), but it’s important to understand the underlying processes at work. It’s not necessarily the modularity of the software itself that’s an issue (tightly integrated code can receive contributions too,office 2010 Home And Business 32bit!), but the surrounding business processes.
I had this realisation while camping with my good friend Steve Dalton and our kids this weekend. So a big thanks to Steve! I think it may help with understanding why SunMySQL (and MySQL AB before it) have had such difficulty dealing with contributions. And proper understanding could help resolve the problem. Good intent on its own does not suffice,microsoft office 2010 update key, otherwise it’d have been highly effective long ago!
