Abstract
This paper integrates previously published patterns (many of them documented by the author) for open source businesses through narratives. An open source business employs open source as a strategy to strengthen its business model. The paper makes three contributions: it links patterns by creating narratives of how they have been applied by different companies; it documents pattern sequences for each example; and it proposes a way to group the patterns that reflects how strategic open source is to a business.
