Oehmke Department of History Duke University Date: ______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Ed Balleisen, Supervisor ___________________________ Simon Partner ___________________________ James Boyle An abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History in the Graduate School of Duke University 2015 Copyright by Joseph J. Oehmke 2015 Abstract Red Hat, Inc. is a prominent software firm that seems rife with contradiction: It brings in more than $1 billion of revenue each year despite giving away its software for free. It trumpets open innovation and promotes its products as alternatives to proprietary software, yet it owns hundreds of patents. It was born from a movement of hackers, but it has grown increasingly corporatized over time. Combining publicly available financial statements, interviews, newspaper reports, scholarly sources, and nearly a dozen new oral histories from current and former Red Hatters, this thesis explores Red Hat’s transformation over time and its place in the world of open source software. Red Hat’s growth has not been magic, but rather a reflection of its ability to capitalize on commons- based peer production, navigate and develop solutions to business and legal hurdles, anticipate market shifts, and develop its brand, and promote its value proposition.

  • Voice and Tone in the Rhetoric of Technology Marketing. (Under the Direction of Dr
    ABSTRACT MORAIN, MATTHEW EDWARD. Out of the Shadows, Into the Blue: Voice and Tone in the Rhetoric of Technology Marketing. (Under the direction of Dr. Andrew R. Binder). This dissertation explores the corporate voice and tone of Red Hat, a large technology company with a unique and passionate company culture, during a period of rapid growth and evolution that threatened its core identity. The company’s ethos is firmly grounded on the principles of open source software, like collaboration and meritocracy, which heavily influence the way decisions are made about what the company’s voice should sound like. Over the course of three studies with varying methodological approaches, this research looks at how Red Hat’s different audiences try to determine what is and is not authentic to its corporate voice and tone. It concludes that the Red Hat voice is not a solo but a chorus, developed and refined through a sometimes-challenging process of collaboration. The studies show how that chorus, once harmonious, is in the process of potential change that threatens cacophony as the company grows far beyond its roots as a plucky, disruptive startup. This dissertation offers a bridge between the disciplines of rhetoric and communication to the professional writing environments of technology marketing, with lessons and insights that can benefit each community. © Copyright 2020 by Matthew Edward Morain All Rights Reserved Out of the Shadows, into the Blue: Voice and Tone in the Rhetoric of Technology Marketing by Matthew Edward Morain A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of North Carolina State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Communication, Rhetoric, and Digital Media Raleigh, North Carolina 2020 APPROVED BY: _______________________________ _______________________________ Dr.
