Terraform fork:

RedHat and Hashicorp under IBM. Hmm, that doesn't bode well for the future.
https://opentofu.org/ is apparently the community fork of terraform
replies:
The kiss of death
I know people hear Hashicorp and instantly think Terraform, but Vault is the real crown jewel here.
replies:
RIP terraform

Christ
So let me get this straight: Hashicorp gets private equity'd, changes its license to be a rentseeker against Amazon and Google, and now sells itself to the OG rentseeker.
What the fuck happened to open source?
replies:
Turns out that IBM is leading OpenTofu efforts. Nevermind, it's OpenBao they are working on (Hashicorp Vault FOSS fork), we might just be done here.
Also Pulumi is technically fucked too. Back to good old shell scripting boys
replies:
Fffffffffffuuuuuuuu
hashicorp's APIs will be right at home at IBM. Right along with HCL. not a fan of either but have been forced to use them. this might bode well for my future if a pending license change is coming.
Damn, iirc someone (forgot who) actually called it at the beginning of terraform debacle, though it was redhat instead of ibm, but close enough.

They missed April fools by about a month
IBM: Hi guys. Can I be relevant again? Guys? Guys hello.... Hello?
HashiCorp provides a suite of tools intended to support the development and deployment of large-scale service-oriented software installations. Each tool is aimed at specific stages in the life cycle of a software application, with a focus on automation. Many have a plugin-oriented architecture in order to provide integration with third-party technologies and services.[16] Additional proprietary features for some of these tools are offered commercially and are aimed at enterprise customers.[17]
Can someone tell me what this actually means?
replies:
Oh balls.
Just as we were building out our terraform deployments... Not a good omen.
