There are multiple possible outcomes from the merge with Datadog.
As my ex manager once told - there is no such thing as nice people in P&L statement. Someone has to pay
It's very easy to be anxious and see the path to the dark side here.
However one of possible outcomes - there will be a valid open source competitor to Grafana ecosystems, and this along secure the rest of scene from relicensing. There is a chance it will be all win-win with clear sustainable path and no money and power struggles for founders.
I want to stay on the positive here. Time will show.
- paulryanrogers 2y agoIs Grafana and its ecosystem no longer open source? I haven't used it in a while
- adeptima 2y agoNo, no. It's all good and amazing. IMHO Grafana is getting even more important in the light of possible disappearing a solid potential competitor. Hope Datadog will be smart enough with Quickwit and opportunity to win the hearts and minds. Clearly an opportunity for Datadog to make a big statement here, and change its perceptions.
