Our top consumer of open-source contributions this year is...

ApisCP incorporates a mixture of licenses allowing us to give back some parts of the platform to the community. Since moving packages to GitHub in 2017, we've contributed 56 packages including a fork of mod_evasive - a lightweight brute-force deterrence for Apache. Some packages exist solely for nostalgia, such as the original backend broker from 2003 while others are minor package updates over what's included with CentOS 7 such as mod_security with JIT PCREs. Many of these packages however serve to the betterment of the community at large, which is flattering when such work falls under the observation of larger competitors.
