I thought Grafana was doing great with its managed offerings. Personally I'd prefer you consider BSL before SSPL since it's usually clearer to most people.

- nopzor 6y agoat grafana labs, we are still pretty torn on what our go forward licensing regime should be. bsl is interesting, but license proliferation and familiarity is a big factor to consider. now that both elastic and mongo are both using sspl, it is more appealing. i think tsl from timescale is also a great and well thought out license.
- dhd415 6y agoInteresting. I got the impression from the recent announcement that Grafana Labs had something of a revenue sharing model with the new AWS managed offering of Grafana. Given that, I wouldn't think the SSPL restrictions would be as important.
- nopzor 6y agowe do indeed have a partnership with aws around grafana. but the cloud landscape goes beyond aws, and the grafana labs landscape goes beyond grafana itself. it's definitely a nuanced discussion internally.
- npiit 6y agoI like Grafana and I wish you the best. Source-available to me is basically FOSS unless I want a free ride off your hard work.
