HashiCorp adopts the Business Source License to ensure continued investment in its community and to continue providing open, freely available products.
That's where I'm at too. Philosophically its a bummer. For the majority of users of their codebase however, this presents zero changes and the only entity I known of who would be impacted by this change going forward is AWS
So I was trying to figure out what are they getting defensive against. It was clear in redhat's case, but I only really found pulumi as some sort of alternative to terraform and I'm not even sure it relies on it. What is the AWS product that's competing here?
Curious, how will AWS be affected? I'm not familiar with all of Hashicorp's tools. Mostly just Terraform (and obvs AWS had Cloud Formation, then CDK - they even worked with HashiCorp I believe to build CDKTF).
