  19.            &lt;div class="field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field--item"&gt;&lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;As the European Union is about to initiate negotiations between co-legislators on the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), we, the undersigned organisations and contributors to leading European open source software (OSS), herewith express our utmost concerns about the consequences of the proposed CRA, and misconceptions throughout the EU legislative process.&lt;/p&gt;
  20. &lt;p class="text-align-justify" dir="ltr"&gt;In this time of increasing awareness of the challenges to European open strategic autonomy, Europe needs a strong open source community supportive of SMEs, startups and scaleups, but also accountability of large corporations in increasing cybersecurity.&lt;/p&gt;
  21. &lt;p class="text-align-justify" dir="ltr"&gt;We deeply share the CRA’s aim to improve cybersecurity in the EU and embrace the urgent need to protect citizens and economies by improving software security. &lt;/p&gt;
  22. &lt;p class="text-align-justify" dir="ltr"&gt;We welcome some recent positive changes brought by the co-legislators, such as the manufacturers’ obligation to report vulnerabilities to the entity maintaining OSS.&lt;/p&gt;
  23. &lt;p class="text-align-justify" dir="ltr"&gt;However, should the proposal or the position of the European Parliament be adopted as it stands, the CRA would: decrease the number of OSS projects available to European SMEs; increase the control over OSS initiatives by large corporations; jeopardise the fragile equilibrium that benefits SMEs which contributes to European innovation; and reduce the security of products available to consumers.&lt;/p&gt;
  24. &lt;p class="text-align-justify" dir="ltr"&gt;Thus, in order to not harm European innovation we urge co-legislators to consider the following:&lt;/p&gt;
  25. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li dir="ltr"&gt;Clearly state that if open source software under the governance of a non-profit falls within the scope of the legislation, legal responsibility should only be on commercial entities supplying the software in the course of a commercial activity, and not the governing non-profit which makes the software available free of charge;&lt;/li&gt;
  26. &lt;li dir="ltr"&gt;Recognise for open source software that is under the governance of non-profits that are acting as neutral spaces, those non-profits may accept to collaborate with for-profit entities by coordinating the compliance of the software;&lt;/li&gt;
  27. &lt;li dir="ltr"&gt;Allow the CE marking and overall compliance managed by commercial entities, to be reusable by the OS community.&lt;/li&gt;
  28. &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="text-align-justify" dir="ltr"&gt;With these elements the CRA could achieve one of its objectives to regulate and improve the cybersecurity practices of OSS used in commercial activities without altering the equilibrium of OSS development, research and collaboration, which currently plays to the advantage of European SMEs and innovation.&lt;/p&gt;
  29. &lt;p class="text-align-justify" dir="ltr"&gt;The undersigned organisations collectively represent a large part of the open source ecosystem in Europe. We offer our collective expertise, and support an increased dialogue towards the CRA’s successful implementation in this new regulatory paradigm.&lt;/p&gt;
  30. &lt;p class="text-align-center" dir="ltr"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

  73. &lt;span&gt;Tue, 2023-09-19 07:00&lt;/span&gt;
  74.  
  75.            &lt;div class="field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field--item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BRUSSELS – September 19, 2023 – &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.eclipse.org" rel="nofollow"&gt;The Eclipse Foundation&lt;/a&gt;, one of the world’s largest open source software foundations, today announced the availability of the 2023 Jakarta EE Developer Survey Report, the industry’s most prominent survey for technical insights into enterprise Java. The results showcase a significantly increased growth in the use of Jakarta EE and a growing interest in cloud native Java overall. The 2023 Jakarta EE Developer Survey Report can be downloaded in its entirety &lt;a href="https://outreach.eclipse.foundation/jakarta-ee-developer-survey-2023" rel="nofollow"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;
  76. &lt;p&gt;“2023 has seen the continued growth of cloud native Java, with open source leading the way,” said Mike Milinkovich, executive director of the Eclipse Foundation. “The release of Jakarta EE 10 truly opened the doors for this shift, and as we set our sights on Jakarta EE 11 our community is looking to drive innovation for enterprise developers by providing new and enhanced APIs and embracing new features in the Java language and platform.”&lt;/p&gt;
  77. &lt;p&gt;Now in its sixth year, the Jakarta EE Developer Survey plays a crucial role in providing insight into the needs, preferences, and perspectives of developers within the Java ecosystem. Additionally, it also serves as a valuable resource to help the Java ecosystem better understand the evolving landscape of cloud-native enterprise Java and what that means for their respective strategies and businesses. Spanning from March 14 to May 23, 2025, this year’s survey engaged a total of 2,203 participants.&lt;/p&gt;
  78. &lt;p&gt;Here are some of the key findings from this year’s survey:&lt;/p&gt;
  79. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Spring/Spring Boot, which incorporates elements of Jakarta EE, continues to dominate as the leading Java framework for cloud native applications at 66%. (up from 57% in 2022). Jakarta EE usage remains steady at 53%, while MicroProfile usage experienced a slight decline, dropping from 30% in 2022 to 26% in 2023. It’s important to note that Spring/SpringBoot is reliant on Jakarta EE developments for its operation and is not necessarily competitive with Jakarta EE. Both are critical ingredients to the healthy enterprise Java ecosystem.&lt;/li&gt;
  80. &lt;li&gt;28% of the respondents will develop cloud native applications to replace some or all existing services (up from 25% in 2022) while 24% will modify existing Java applications for migration in the cloud (vs 28% in 2022). 22% of the respondents are currently running their Java applications in the cloud (vs 18% in 2022)&lt;/li&gt;
  81. &lt;li&gt;Despite only shipping in September 2022, Jakarta EE 10 usage has grown to 17%.&lt;/li&gt;
  82. &lt;li&gt;Over 60% of respondents (59% in 2022) have already migrated to Jakarta EE, or plan to do so within the next 6-24 months.&lt;/li&gt;
  83. &lt;li&gt;17% of respondents run Jakarta EE 9/9.1 in production (up from 14% in 2022) and 28% currently run Jakarta EE 8 in production (vs 24% in 2022)&lt;/li&gt;
  84. &lt;li&gt;The Jakarta EE Community is deeply interested in adopting the innovations implemented in Java SE into Jakarta EE (30%). This is a good indicator that Jakarta EE 11 release plan is on the right direction by adopting new Java SE 21 features.&lt;/li&gt;
  85. &lt;li&gt;The Top five community priorities for Jakarta EE are:
  86. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Better support for Kubernetes 50% (51% in 2022)&lt;/li&gt;
  87. &lt;li&gt;Better support for microservices (48%)&lt;/li&gt;
  88. &lt;li&gt;Adapt Java SE innovations (such as Records and Virtual Threads) (30%)&lt;/li&gt;
  89. &lt;li&gt;Improve support for serverless (25%)&lt;/li&gt;
  90. &lt;li&gt;Faster support from existing Java EE / Jakarta EE or cloud vendors, improve support for testing &amp; faster pace of innovation (23%) &lt;/li&gt;
  91. &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  92. &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;With regard to the community’s priorities in terms of the future of Jakarta EE, it is interesting to find that the first two priorities remain consistent over the past two years, from 2021 to 2023. However, last year’s 3rd place priority “Faster Support from existing Java EE / Jakarta EE or cloud vendors,” has been overtaken by a shift to adapting Java SE innovations and serverless support. &lt;/p&gt;
  93. &lt;p&gt;The Jakarta EE community welcomes contributions and participation from all interested individuals and organizations. As the Jakarta EE Working Group diligently works towards the Jakarta EE 11 release, which includes innovative cloud native features, there’s no better time to become part of this vibrant community and make your voice heard.

Your involvement can help drive the future of enterprise Java.&lt;/p&gt;
  95. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Quotes from Jakarta EE Working Group Member Organizations &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  96. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IBM&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  97. &lt;p&gt;“It is great to see the progress made with developers around Jakarta EE adoption,” said Ian Robinson, CTO, IBM Application Runtimes. “We continue to innovate and deliver complete Jakarta EE compatibility and production support, along with MicroProfile and Spring Boot, with our Liberty runtime making it the ideal runtime for cloud-native applications.”&lt;/p&gt;
  98. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Oracle&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  99. &lt;p&gt;“The 50%+ growth in survey responses indicates a vibrant Jakarta EE community that is looking for improved Kubernetes support, microservices support, and adoption of new Java SE features such as virtual threads. Oracle’s investments in WebLogic Server, Helidon, Coherence, and Verrazzano are aligned with these trends, and the survey results provide valuable insights into these and other trends in the enterprise Java community.” - Tom Snyder, VP of Engineering, Oracle Enterprise Cloud Native Java&lt;/p&gt;
  100. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Payara&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  101. &lt;p&gt;“It is fantastic to see such an increase in participation in this year's comprehensive Jakarta EE Developer Survey. Especially encouraging is the growth in use of Jakarta EE 10, despite it only shipping in December,” said Steve Millidge, CEO and Founder, Payara. “We help developers enjoy its new features, with our Payara Platform 6 Enterprise and Community Edition. Respondents continue to ask for greater support for Kubernetes and Docker in Jakarta EE. We hope to provide an alternate solution for this, with our fully managed cloud native runtime, Payara Cloud, taking away the hassle of Kubernetes for Jakarta EE developers altogether. Overall, the future looks bright for Jakarta EE and Payara, as we note with pride that the percentage of respondents using Payara has also increased!”&lt;/p&gt;
  102. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About the Eclipse Foundation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  181. &lt;span&gt;The Eclipse Foundation Releases Results of the 2023 Cloud Developer Survey&lt;/span&gt;
  182.

  184.  
  185. &lt;span&gt;Tue, 2023-08-29 07:00&lt;/span&gt;
  186.  
  187.            &lt;div class="field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field--item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BRUSSELS – August 29, 2023 – &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.eclipse.org/org/foundation/" rel="nofollow"&gt;The Eclipse Foundation&lt;/a&gt;, one of the world’s largest open source foundations, along with the &lt;a href="https://ecdtools.eclipse.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Eclipse Cloud DevTools Working Group&lt;/a&gt;, today announced the availability of the 2023 Cloud Developer Survey Report. This year’s Cloud Developer Survey results are based on an online survey of 534 cloud developers and software professionals conducted from November 21, 2022 to January 13, 2023. The survey’s objective is to gain a better understanding of the cloud-based software development ecosystem by identifying the requirements, priorities, and challenges faced by organizations leveraging a cloud-based development model, including those based on open source technologies. &lt;/p&gt;
  188. &lt;p&gt;“Cloud-based software developer tools are experiencing significant momentum as developer teams around the world continue to shift work to cloud native architectures. Our research has shown the majority of these developers not only leverage open source technologies but are increasingly looking to solutions governed by an open source software foundation,” said Mike Milinkovich, executive director of the Eclipse Foundation. “This demonstrates that there is solid traction for open source cloud development tools. Moreover, in an increasingly crowded market, Eclipse Foundation projects like Eclipse Open VSX, Eclipse Theia, and Eclipse Che are making an enormous impact by providing the community-led open source technologies that developers need.”&lt;/p&gt;
  189. &lt;p&gt;Survey participants represent a broad set of industries, organizations, and job functions. Some of the top conclusions drawn from the survey data include:&lt;/p&gt;
  190. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Open source is attractive to developers, with 74% saying they would like to see their companies invest more into OSS. &lt;/strong&gt;Developers prefer open source because it allows them to 1) focus on developing features that matter to their organizations; 2) plug into their existing environments; and 3) customize their tools.&lt;/li&gt;
  191. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cloud native applications are becoming increasingly mission-critical. &lt;/strong&gt;Migration to the cloud continues, with 35% reporting their company’s most important applications are now cloud native. Only 13% of participants say their company has no cloud migration plans for important on-premise applications.&lt;/li&gt;
  192. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Developers are increasingly leaning towards open source technologies that are governed by an open source foundation. &lt;/strong&gt;While developers are not necessarily driving the business decisions, 36% say they would prefer working with projects that are foundation-supported. &lt;/li&gt;
  193. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Overall, developers like the tools they use and spend significant time customizing them, but would consider switching to other cloud-based options under the right conditions.&lt;/strong&gt; Motivators include: a performance boost, tight integration with cloud technologies, ease of setup/configuration, and a high level of security.&lt;/li&gt;
  194. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;There is a disconnect between open source software consumption and participation. &lt;/strong&gt;56% of respondents use open source software, with only 38% being members of open source foundations and 31% contributing to open source projects. &lt;/li&gt;
  195. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Developers see opportunities for growth around AI/ML and edge.&lt;/strong&gt; Developers are generally excited about experimenting with new technologies. Their use of AI/ML is increasing, with much of it happening at the edge.&lt;/li&gt;
  196. &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;In addition to these findings, the survey report provides detailed key takeaways and recommendations for cloud developers, employers, and other ecosystem participants. The 2023 Cloud Developer Survey Report is now available to all interested parties and can be &lt;a href="https://outreach.eclipse.foundation/cloud-developer-survey-2023" rel="nofollow"&gt;downloaded for free here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

  257. &lt;span&gt;The Open VSX Registry, a Vendor-Neutral Open Source Alternative to the Visual Studio Marketplace, Gets its Own Working Group at the Eclipse Foundation&lt;/span&gt;
  258.  
  259. &lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Jacob Harris&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  260.  
  261. &lt;span&gt;Tue, 2023-06-27 06:30&lt;/span&gt;
  262.  
  263.            &lt;div class="field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field--item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BRUSSELS, Belgium – June 27, 2023 – &lt;/strong&gt;The Eclipse Foundation, one of the world’s largest open source software foundations, today announced the formation of the Open VSX Working Group. The mission of the new working group will be to manage and accelerate adoption of the Open VSX Registry, a vendor-neutral, community-supported alternative to the Microsoft Visual Studio Marketplace. &lt;/p&gt;
  264.  
  265. &lt;p&gt;Built on the&lt;a href="https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ecd.openvsx"&gt; Eclipse Open VSX&lt;/a&gt; open source project, the Open VSX Registry currently hosts nearly 3,000 extensions from over 1,500 different publishers, with new publishers and extensions being added daily. Since the Open VSX Registry became available in 2021, developers have consumed more than 40M extensions, with downloads now exceeding 2M per month. To manage and facilitate this ongoing growth, management of the Open VSX Registry will now shift from the &lt;a href="https://ecdtools.eclipse.org/"&gt;Eclipse Cloud DevTools Working Group&lt;/a&gt; to a new working group, with initial members including Google, Huawei, Posit, Salesforce, Siemens, and STMicroelectronics. &lt;/p&gt;
  266.  
  267. &lt;p&gt;“The Open VSX Registry has experienced significant momentum at the Eclipse Foundation, so much so that it merits having its own working group for continued evolution and growth,” said Mike Milinkovich, executive director of the Eclipse Foundation. “By creating a vendor-neutral home with a true open source model for these extensions, we can ensure that this marketplace is guided by the community, and not just a single vendor.”&lt;/p&gt;
  268.  
  269. &lt;p&gt;The Open VSX Registry delivers on the industry’s need for a fully open source approach to marketplace technologies for Visual Studio (VS) Code extensions. It increases transparency and flexibility for extension users, publishers, and tool developers, particularly those leveraging cloud-based development tools and IDEs that want to avoid being locked into proprietary models and marketplaces. &lt;/p&gt;
  270.  
  271. &lt;p&gt;As an open alternative to the Visual Studio Marketplace, the Open VSX Registry offers free access to extensions that can be used with any technology or tool that supports them. These include many open source solutions like Eclipse Che and Eclipse Theia, as well as Salesforce Code Builder, Google Cloud Workstations, Gitpod, SAP Business Application Studio and other applications based on Eclipse projects.&lt;/p&gt;
  272.  
  273. &lt;p&gt;In addition, since the Eclipse Open VSX code itself is open source, any organization can contribute to the registry code and reuse it to create an internally hosted and managed extension registry for their in-house developers to publish and consume VS Code extensions.&lt;/p&gt;
  274.  
  275. &lt;p&gt;Interested parties can learn more or start using the Open VSX Registry immediately at &lt;a href="https://open-vsx.org/"&gt;open-vsx.org&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
  276.

Meanwhile, we also offer an open platform on which developers can build and publish their own extensions to suit specific business needs. The Open VSX Registry, a vendor-neutral option for IDE extensions, is essential to fulfill our mission and keep our long-standing commitment to developers.”&lt;/p&gt;
  288.  
  289. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Posit&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

  372. &lt;span&gt;Eclipse Sparkplug Specification Honored with IoT Business Impact Award &lt;/span&gt;
  373.  
  374. &lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Jacob Harris&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  375.  
  376. &lt;span&gt;Tue, 2023-05-23 09:22&lt;/span&gt;
  377.  
  378.            &lt;div class="field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field--item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BRUSSELS, Belgium – May 23, 2023 – &lt;/strong&gt;The Eclipse Foundation, one of the world’s largest open source software foundations, announced today that the &lt;a href="https://sparkplug.eclipse.org/"&gt;Eclipse Sparkplug specification&lt;/a&gt; has received a 2023 IoT Business Impact Award from &lt;a href="https://www.iotevolutionworld.com/Default.aspx"&gt;IoT Evolution&lt;/a&gt; magazine, the leading publication covering IoT technologies.&lt;/p&gt;
  379.  
  380. &lt;p&gt;The award honors organizations for their IoT deployment case studies. Eclipse Sparkplug was recognized for their successful partnership bringing IoT functionality to NGL Energy Partners.&lt;/p&gt;
  381.  
  382. &lt;p&gt;“Sparkplug is well on its way to becoming the de facto standard for making the IIoT ‘plug’n’play,’” said Frederic Desbiens, Eclipse Foundation program manager and evangelist for IoT and Edge Computing. “This award highlights the significant business benefits of implementing this specification in conjunction with MQTT.” &lt;/p&gt;
  383.  
  384. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About Sparkplug &amp; MQTT&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  385.  
  386. &lt;p&gt;Sparkplug provides an open and freely available specification for how Edge of Network (EoN) gateways or native MQTT-enabled end devices and MQTT Applications communicate bi-directionally within an MQTT Infrastructure. It is recognized that MQTT is used across a wide spectrum of application solution use cases and an almost indefinable variation of network topologies. &lt;/p&gt;

  388. &lt;p&gt;By design, the MQTT specification does not dictate a Topic Namespace or any payload encoding. However, as the IIoT and other architectures leveraging the publisher/subscriber model are adopted by device OEMs in the industrial sector, having different Topic Namespace and payload encoding can inhibit interoperability for the end customer. To that end, the Sparkplug specification addresses the following components within an MQTT infrastructure: &lt;/p&gt;
  389.  
  390. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sparkplug defines an OT-centric Topic Namespace &lt;/li&gt;
  391. &lt;li&gt;Sparkplug defines an OT-centric Payload definition optimized for industrial process variables &lt;/li&gt;
  392. &lt;li&gt;Sparkplug defines MQTT Session State management required by real-time OT SCADA systems&lt;/li&gt;
  393. &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt; “It is my pleasure to recognize Sparkplug, an innovative solution that earned the Eclipse Foundation the 2023 Business Impact Award,” said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. “I look forward to seeing more successful deployments of best-in-class solutions from the Eclipse Foundation in the future.”&lt;/p&gt;
  394.  
  395. &lt;p&gt;The Sparkplug standard has recently been submitted for acceptance as an&lt;a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/en/news-release/2022/12/08/2570068/0/en/The-Eclipse-Foundation-Announces-The-Release-of-Sparkplug-3-0-and-Unveils-it-is-Being-Fast-Tracked-to-Become-an-International-Standard.html"&gt; ISO/IEC JTC 1 international standard&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

  478.  
  479. &lt;span&gt;Mon, 2023-04-24 06:00&lt;/span&gt;
  480.  
  481.            &lt;div class="field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field--item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BRUSSELS, Belgium – April 24th, 2023 – &lt;/strong&gt;The Eclipse Foundation, one of the world’s largest open source software foundations, today published its study about Cloud Interoperability to foster the European Digital Market. The report provides an analysis of the current market of the European cloud services ecosystem and perspectives:&lt;/p&gt;
  482.  
  483. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;To unlock the cloud industry,&lt;/li&gt;
  484. &lt;li&gt;To ease current digital market limitations, &lt;/li&gt;
  485. &lt;li&gt;To simplify the complexity behind managed cloud services usage, &lt;/li&gt;
  486. &lt;li&gt;And to open new opportunities for all: users, developers, and service providers. &lt;/li&gt;
  487. &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;As part of this publication, the Eclipse Foundation will be hosting a launch event on April 25th at 1:30 PM CEST in Brussels, open to all parties interested in contributing to an open cloud ecosystem. Registration and more information on this event can be found here: &lt;a href="https://events.eclipse.org/2023/unlockthecloud/"&gt;https://events.eclipse.org/2023/unlockthecloud/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  488.  
  489. &lt;p&gt;“EU participants are grossly underrepresented in today's cloud ecosystem. This new open source industry collaboration will level the playing field and enable Europe to not only fully embrace the cloud, but build its own innovative industry,” said Mike Milinkovich, executive director, the Eclipse Foundation. “As one of the critical ingredients to growth for multiple industries underpinning the EU’s economy, growing the region’s leadership in the cloud ecosystem will be the foundation for the future economic prosperity of Europe.”&lt;/p&gt;
  490.  
  491. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Building cloud interoperability with the Open Services Cloud&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  492.  
  493. &lt;p&gt;Having reached nearly €190B in 2022, the European cloud services market is growing rapidly. It drives many of the 14 strategic industrial ecosystems defined in the 2021 &lt;a href="https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/priorities-2019-2024/europe-fit-digital-age/european-industrial-strategy_en#:~:text=Europe%20is%20embarking%20on%20a,we%20enter%20this%20new%20age."&gt;EU industrial strategy&lt;/a&gt; and is forecasted to grow at an annual rate of 13% over the next decade.&lt;/p&gt;
  494.  
  495. &lt;p&gt;Despite this compelling growth, the European cloud ecosystem is still limited in its ability to expand. To increase balance and boost cloud consumer purchasing power in the European market, the study introduces how Open Services Cloud platform brings three core innovations to streamline the process of using multiple clouds: a descriptive configuration language, a management portal, and a portable services and data solution. &lt;/p&gt;
  496.  
  497. &lt;p&gt;The Open Services Cloud levels the playing field between cloud users and CSPs and ISVs. Especially beneficial to smaller businesses and start-ups, the Open Services Cloud opens the door for the emergence of a stronger European ecosystem of cloud service industry.&lt;/p&gt;
  498.  
  499. &lt;p&gt;On April 25th, we will be hosting an in-person event in Brussels where you will learn from industry leaders, discover the results of our new study on cloud interoperability, and find out more about where the EU Data Act and the Digital Markets Act are heading when it comes to European cloud services. Register &lt;a href="https://events.eclipse.org/2023/unlockthecloud/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; to participate. &lt;/p&gt;
