“Are one company’s castoffs another company’s treasure?
“Open source startup ForgeRock this week is celebrating its
first year in business, thanks in part to technology giant
Oracle.“The core of ForgeRock identity offerings were born at Sun
Microsystems, which has since been acquired by Oracle (NASDAQ:
ORCL). ForgeRock has managed to take a number of open source
technologies started at Sun, including the OpenSSO single sign on
and identity platform, and position them as the foundation of a
growing business. According to ForgeRock, the technologies that it
is now building and evolving might not have had a future with
Oracle, which has created an opportunity for the startup.”
