No, it's astronomically unlikely to be Vault at all.

No, it's astronomically unlikely to be Vault at all.
- Alupis 3y agoIt's far more likely to be Vault as a base, actually. The MPL would allow someone like Amazon to use Vault's source as a base, and so long as the core source wasn't modified Amazon would be under no obligation to make their modifications public. The MPL is a lot more "business" friendly than the GPL. The very fact that HashiCorp is changing their license and restricting use clearly indicates they see this threat as reality. Amazon/Microsoft/Google/Whoever using HashiCorp's work/effort but keeping all the money to themselves.
- candiddevmike 3y agoI don't know what you've heard but none of the cloud providers use HashiCorp Vault as the foundation for their secrets manager.
- xyzzy_plugh 3y agoYes, they could, but no major cloud provider does. They're all bespoke. Read their white papers and it'll make more sense.
