As an open and borderless new cooperation mode, undefinedundefinedundefined open source is the source of innovation, openness, sharing and sustainable development of digital economy. The great success of open source has also inspired many enterprises to apply the experiences and lessons of open source software development to the organization, which is called internal source. At present, endogenous construction has become an important means for enterprises to improve R & D efficiency and release industrial efficiency, as well as in the communications industry. at the same time, the lack of capacity building, the lack of enterprise-level open source cultural identity and professional management team and other pain points have also become the common pain points of internal construction in various industries.

As the national team of central enterprises and the vanguard of the communications industry, China Unicom has been in depth in the research and development of open source technology for many years. As an important part of "one part, two centers" of the network line of China Unicom Group, China Unicom is responsible for creating network innovation products, building a network intelligent operation system, and establishing a professional and large-scale R & D system, which is now at the forefront of internal governance.

In this year's OSCAR open source industry conference, we also had the honor to invite Zhang Dongyang, an expert from China Unicom Intelligence Network, to discuss the topic of endogenous governance with you in depth. Zhang Dongyang is an architecture design expert of China Unicom Intelligent Network Innovation Center, responsible for the related work of technology management, including center technology system construction, technology selection, technology scheme review and so on.

Before the meeting, we specially interviewed teacher Zhang Dongyang to share our thoughts and experience on open source within the enterprise.

The following is a transcript of the interview.

Q1

Could you tell me something about the open source within the Unicom Intelligent Network Innovation Center?

Since 2021, Zhao.com Innovation Center has actively promoted projects in the field of internal open source, covering all aspects of technology and applications, including front-end development, cloud computing, big data analysis, artificial intelligence and other areas, aimed at promoting open cooperation and technological innovation.

The open source governance process of Zhi.com Innovation Center has gone through many stages. At first, the focus was on building an open source culture and philosophy and encouraging team members to participate in the open source community. Subsequently, the establishment of the internal community, through the open source project management process and review mechanism to achieve endogenous governance and promote the organic interaction between the internal community and the open source community.

At present, Zhao.com Innovation Center has formed a number of successful open source projects, some of which have been widely used. At the same time, we will continue to promote the spread and development of open source culture within the center by actively contributing code and providing technical support.

Q2

Has open source within communication enterprises become an industry trend?

According to the research data of China Institute of Information and Communication, 66.67% of the communication enterprises have implemented internal open source in the intranet. At present, open source within communications enterprises has become an industry trend. I think there are three reasons:

First, open source can promote technological innovation and rapid development, so that enterprises can better adapt to market demand and competitive pressure.

Second, through open source, enterprises can attract more developers and technical experts to participate in the project and form a good technology ecosystem.

Third, open source can reduce the R & D costs of enterprises and achieve higher benefits by sharing resources and technologies.

Q3

Under what circumstances do you think an enterprise is suitable for internal open source?

It can be divided into three situations: first, enterprises need to speed up product development and innovation ability; second, enterprises hope to attract more developers and technical personnel to establish a good technology community; third, enterprises hope to reduce research and development costs. by sharing and reusing technical resources.

Q4

What do you think are the special requirements for endogenous governance in the communications industry?

I think we can look at it from four aspects:

First, products and services in the communications industry often need to meet strict technical standards and security requirements, so endogenous governance needs to emphasize the rigor of code review, testing, and verification.

Second, in the communications industry, the standardization of network technologies, protocols and interfaces is very important, so endogenous governance needs to work closely with industry standards organizations and institutions.

Third, projects in the communications industry usually need to run on different hardware and software platforms, so endogenous governance needs to support diversity and portability.

Fourth, as the communications industry involves a large number of patents and intellectual property rights, endogenous governance needs to clarify the ownership and management of intellectual property rights.

Q5

What challenges does Unicom Smart Network Innovation Center encounter in the process of implementing internal open source governance?

First of all, the transformation process of establishing open source culture and ideas takes time and resource investment.

Secondly, coordinating the cooperation and participation of internal team members requires certain management and communication skills. The process of managing and maintaining open source projects is different from traditional project management and needs to be adapted and adjusted.

Finally, it takes time and active participation to build communities and ecosystems for open source projects.

Q6

In view of the above challenges, how does Unicom's Intelligent Network Innovation Center solve them one by one? What experiences can be shared?

From the practice of Zhi.com Innovation Center, to do a good job of internal open source work needs to start from the following aspects:

First, build an internal community, strengthen internal training and publicity, and improve team members' understanding and participation in open source.

Second, establish the review, management and contribution mechanism of open source projects, including code review, version control, quality testing and other links to ensure the quality and security of open source projects.

Third, support the sustainable development and maintenance of open source projects, provide technical support and contribute code, documentation and other resources, establish an effective incentive mechanism, and establish open communication channels and cooperation platforms.

Fourth, actively participate in the open source community and establish good cooperative relations with external partners to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.

Q7

What do you think is the biggest challenge for enterprises to promote the construction of endogenous culture?

The biggest challenge is to change the traditional closed thinking and the concept of competition. In the traditional model, enterprises are often accustomed to protecting their own technology and intellectual property rights, while open source culture encourages sharing and cooperation, which requires active leadership and organizational culture transformation.

Q8

In terms of endogenous governance, what cooperation has been established between Unicom's Intelligent Network Innovation Center and China Information and Communication Institute?

China Unicom Intelligent Network Innovation Center maintains a long-term cooperative relationship with China Information Communication Institute, actively participates in the formulation and evaluation of standards of China Information Communication Institute, and strengthens the construction and management of open source process standardization of China Unicom Innovation Center.

In terms of internal governance, China Information and Communication Institute provides professional advice and guidance to help Zhi.com Innovation Center formulate governance strategies and development plans for endogenous governance; at the same time, it provides technical support and shares best practices to help Zhi.com Innovation Center solve challenges and problems in endogenous governance.

At present, Zhao.com Innovation Center has participated in the internal governance assessment of China ICT, and the final results will be officially released at the 2023 OSCAR Open Source Industry Conference.

At the end of the interview, Mr. Zhang Dongyang also issued an invitation to the vast number of open source participants: open source governance, trusted open source, welcome colleagues in the industry to participate in the 2023 OSCAR open source industry conference, jointly build open source ecology, co-govern open source security, and share open source feast.

On September 21, we will see each other again.

The OSCAR Open Source Industry Conference will be held on September 21, 2023. Invite industry experts and industry elites to explore the ways of open source governance and promote the ecological construction of open source in various industries.
