My biggest concern is the legally untested clause in their BUSL on ‘competing with hashicorp’. I do not know whether I can run Terraform from a production control panel to start new infra for customers. I do not know when this competing might change.
Their faq comments are useless: they had a faq item before saying they would be FOSS forever which they removed with this move.
- bostik 3y agoThis is the core of the matter. With the language of their license, they have a financial incentive to start offering services that increasingly cover more and more of the possible "bulk" use cases. Your use might have been perfectly fine last week, but can be competing with their new offerings from the beginning of next week.
