Now I kinda hope Oracle decides to buy out MongoDB and integrate it into their own cloud. Then Oracle can decide to pull the same bullshit that they did with Google over the Java APIs with the MongoDB APIs but now against their current enemy Amazon (and Microsoft, too).
Then a combined Google + Amazon + Microsoft may finally be able to reverse the API Copyright insanity that is hovering ominously over the tech industry, and Oracle can continue to be a shining city upon a hill of shitty technologies you should never allow your business to adopt.
- wmf 8y agoAWS is preemptively defensive about API licensing claims: "Amazon DocumentDB implements the Apache 2.0 open source MongoDB 3.6 API".
- christkv 8y agoI think they are referencing the drivers which are licensed under Apache 2.0.
