Another #opensource #database turns to the dark side.
@scylladb.com announced discontinuing its #ScyllaDB OSS (AGPL license), and #relicensing the Enterprise edition to a source-available (non #FOSS) one.
Remember folks: vendor-owned open source is an oxymoron.

This case underpins the success of the #opensource community this year.
#DiceDB considered the non-open source—"source available"—Business Source License, but ultimately decided to go open source under AGPL license.
DiceDB is a #Redis compliant cache. Why is that important, you ask?

This joins the recent #relicensing of #Redis #Terraform...
Which brings us back to the fundamental question:
Is vendor owned open source an oxymoron?

IBM looking to acquire HashiCorp.
Looks like Hashi's recent move to lock in open source customers and force them into its commercial products is paying off. Stay tuned.

The dark side of #opensource goes beyond rights ratchet.
Sad to see HashiCorp, the once great #FOSS champion, reducing itself to legal intimidation of OSS projects it perceives as competition.

🚨 #Redis is moving away from #opensource and into source-available model.
Funny enough, I just landed in from #SRECon, after giving a talk about the dark side of open source, to find this fresh example ☹️
