RedHat for one. Varnish maybe? Ansible (now RedHat!), Salt, Puppet likely Citrix via Xen should be doing alright

  To be clear: Red Hat is a $billion business that is purely Open Source (nothing they sell or do is not open source, and when they acquire things that aren't open, they open them within weeks or months of acquisition), which is pretty amazing. I've been involved in Open Source based businesses for almost two decades now, and I still don't grasp how to build a billion dollar business on entirely open source software (though I've made a decent living at it most of that time). But, I stubbornly keep trying.

      You mean I have to deal with government purchasing processes? No thanks. I guess I'll never build that billion dollar OSS company. Or, maybe I can hire someone to handle that part of the equation.
