Top 50 Open Source Companies

 

In 2008, the VAR Guy named eRacks as one of the top 50 Open Source companies. He just updated his list with some current stats. Only 2 of the 50 companies on his list have tanked, while 6 have been acquired by larger companies. I was not surprised to see that nearly all of the companies on his list are now focused on some aspect of cloud computing.
