Forecasting Resources
Why?
- More accurate than in-house code.
- Less hassle, less maintenance.
- Fully scalable.
Open source projects
At Lokad, we typically release as open source projects that happen not to be tightly related to our core forecasting technology. Those tools and components are critical for us, we hope they will benefit to the community too.
Tier 1 projects, in production at Lokad, actively developed and maintained:
- Lokad.Cloud - .NET O/C mapper (object to cloud) for Windows Azure.
- Lokad.Shared - Libraries and guidance for building .NET applications efficiently.
- Lokad.CQRS - Command-Query Responsibility Segregation for Windows Azure.
Tier 2 projects in production at Lokad, but no company commitment for maintenance:
Quasi Lokad open source projects
Those projects have not been developed by Lokad, but rather by individuals who happened to end-up in the Lokad team at some point. Lokad is not necessarily the lead contributor in those projects, but we keep a vivid interest in them.
- Math.NET - Mathematical library written in C#/.NET.
- Autofac - An addictive .NET IoC container.
- ScrewTurn Wiki - ASP.NET Wiki (Lokad.com is hosted on STW).

All add-ons developed by Lokad have been released as open source under the
BSD license on
Google Code.
The BSD license is compatible with closed-source commercial applications. Integrating a forecasting technology has never been easier.
What people say
From a developer standpoint, we found that the Lokad API was very well
documented and easy to use. The Lokad team was also extremely
responsive to any questions we had. Most importantly, we were able to
develop a
Lokad plugin for our data browser in very short order.
