IBM to buy HashiCorp in $6.4 billion deal to expand cloud software
IBM to buy HashiCorp in $6.4 billion deal to expand cloud software
Well yet another product to fall victim to IBM's poorly integrated, poorly documented, terribly supported integrated solutions championed by ignorant marketing teams to C levels
I don't like IBM
Yep, now they own ansible and terraform. No way they'll let both exist long term and they'll likely kill both.
OpenTofu is a FOSS fork of Terraform, protected and endorsed by the Linux Foundation.
Oh christ, there goes Terraform... That really sucks.
Time to Open up some Tofu!
I hope that gets to the point where major players are able and willing to use it. I only have so much sway with my clients when it comes to tooling choice and open source options can be hard to sell to some enterprises until they hit a certain proliferation point.
was already compromised by their BS(L) license change, but this will certainly result in so much worse shit
Most of my clients were not impacted by that change, since it was more related to building Terraform-adjacent tooling and not so much products built with Terraform. I was not a fan, but it didn't necessarily kill it as an option for me. This though... IBM will absolutely fuck this up.
Ohh cool, just what consumers needed. More consolidation.
