A silent revolution that is gaining momentum in the software world is the Open Source Movement. The movement is intended to support and promote distribution of freely developed applications using a collaborative framework operating under free distribution license policies. These applications are available along with source code and limited documentation for people to use, enhance and distribute. Open source application though available freely comes with the overhead of limited documentation, inherent rigidity along with limitations and restrictions in terms of functionality and performance.

Axelerant strongly supports the Open Source Software development movement and believes that it is advantageous to the customer because "In an Open Source world nobody gets to hold the customer to ransom". Axelerant over time has developed a panache for leveraging the strengths of the open source movement coupled with offsetting the inherent limitations that come along with it. Axelerant has trained and deployed focused research and development teams to support and sustain this initiative. This passion and belief has enabled us to flaunt many applications customized from the open source realm.
