Let's say you deploy a work queue service backed by Redis, with authz/n delegated to Azure AD. You would require a commercial license since you can't publish Azure AD?

A work queue service is not a public Redis service so you have total freedom to do whatever you want in this case

  What if Redis Inc think it is and sue you?

    They'd be destroying their community

      Taking an established open-source project with a healthy ecosystem and community and making it proprietary overnight is already destroying their community.

        How is it proprietary? It's using the SSPL which offers copyleft user freedoms

        You can split software licenses roughly into two, open-source and proprietary. Since SSPL is not open-source, it's considered proprietary.

        What do you consider the AGPL and other copy left licenses? Even the OSI director acknowledges this one needs another look in the fulness of time here
        gkbrk 3y ago
        I consider AGPL open-source. Same with other open-source copy-left licenses like GPL or LGPL.
