# Open source that we use

We are proud to have built jambonz by standing on the shoulders of some awesome open-source products. 

Building an application like jambonz requires curating a selection of the best open source products, and without exception these products have been a delight to work with and are well-supported by talented teams of developers. Please consider supporting them!

<span class="mxs"><sup>*</sup> Note that:</span>

<ol class="mxs">
  <li>When using Homer (or Grafana) with the AGPL v3 license, any changes that you make to the jambonz source code <strong>are not</strong> considered a "covered work" by that license, as the two programs are not linked.<br/>TLDR: any changes you make to jambonz source code remain under the more permissive MIT license</li>
  <li><a href="https://qxip.net/" target="_blank">QXIP</a>, the creator of Homer and the <a href="https://github.com/sipcapture/HEP" target="_blank">HEP protocol</a>, also offer a non-GPL option (<a href="https://hepic.tel" target="_blank">HEPIC</a>) that is specifically designed for the needs of large-scale telcos and Communications Service Providers.  We highly recommend it to those who need a carrier-class monitoring and SIP capture solution.</li>
  <li>If, after reading the above, you (or the company you work for) are still scared off by the AGPL v3 license, and are not interested in <a href="https://hepic.tel" target="_blank">HEPIC</a> (have you checked it out?), then know that neither Homer nor Grafana are required components of jambonz - simply don't install them, or remove if already installed.</li>
