With increasing number of open source projects across many domains, the license of open source software becomes critical to grant everyone legally appropriate permission to freely use, modify and distribute open source software.
With more than 60 licenses such as Berkeley Software Distribution(BSD), MIT License, the Apache License, and so on, approved by, Open Source Initiative (OSI) for complying with open source definition, there exists differences among them.

A distributed parallelized ( Map Reduce) wrapper around APACHE RATTM (Release Audit Tool) that
goes far beyond RATTM by leveraging Apache OODTTM to dramatically speed up the process.
DRAT is a Map Reduce version of RAT using Apache Tika to automatically sort and classify the code base files
DRAT uses Apache OODT to index metadata and Tika information about those code files into Apache Solr and OODT to produce a Map Reduce workflow
DRAT runs RAT incrementally on k-sized chunks of same-MIME-typed files (detected by Tika) and then producing incremental, per type logs, and then aggregating and reducing them into a combined log at the end.
