| has gloss | eng: In software and web-based architectures, an Open Platform describes a software system which has published external programming interfaces that allow using the software to function in other ways than the original programmer intended, without requiring modification of the source code. Using these interfaces, typically known as an Application Programming Interface (API), a 3rd party could integrate with the platform to add functionality. An Open Platform does not mean it is Open Source. An Open Platform can consist of software components or modules that are either commercial or open source or both. |
