InnerSource rocks

Description
In this episode Karsten Hohage talks with our guest Michael Picht about InnerSource at SAP and why it should be the default development model at SAP. InnerSource is the practice of applying methodologies and best practices from open source projects to in-house software development. In an InnerSource approach, projects are open for contributions from other teams. This implies that they accept and build on these contributions – just as an open source project would. The major difference are the boundaries: the community is in-house, it only consists of colleagues, and the codebase cannot be accessed from outside of the company. By applying InnerSource in an enterprise software development context, you can increase quality, speed, collaboration, and developer joy. Moreover, especially large development organizations can break silos between different teams and encourage developers to expand their skills or use them to support cross-team projects.
