Automation is at the core of financial services and insurance (FSI) firms’ technology strategies. These firms need technology that adapts and scales quickly, reliably, and economically; they typically turn to automation software to do so. Enterprise open source tools can provide a variety of benefits for FSI firms at a lower risk profile than their free counterparts.

To explore this topic, Forrester conducted an online survey with 378 total infrastructure automation decision makers, 55 in FSI, responsible for their organizations’ open source automation strategies. This spotlight highlights those 55. For the full survey results of all respondents, read the report.
