Very interesting that this is happening at the same time that NATS is going proprietary. Obviously Redis is way more well known, but as someone who has built a bunch on NATS over the last few years, this makes Redis an interesting choice to migrate to again.
- nchmy 1y agoapparently synadia is working with the linux foundation now to find a better way forward, and will release a joint statement soon. (CEO mentioned in their slack)
- Zambyte 1y agoCool, I'm definitely hoping for a sensible outcome. NATS has been a great tool to work with, and Synadia has also been great to work with.

- snotreal 1y agoWhy? Have you actually ready Synadia's comments where they made it clear that they always intended to maintain the Apache 2 Version by contributing the stuff they build back to the main repo? It just won't be as fast, so they can make some money first which will fund them giving it away. You said "I also built a lot" Are you making money off those projects or get paid for your services for that use?
- Zambyte 1y agoFWIW I also build a lot on NATS for work, and we pay Synadia for consulting. We would have taken our business elsewhere due to the license change has that happened.
