Under the patronage of the Linux Foundation, the OpenBao project has been established, which will continue the development of the codebase of the Hashicorp Vault repository under the free MPLv2 license (Mozilla Public License). The fork was created in response to HashiCorp's decision to switch its products to the proprietary BSL 1.1 license, which restricts the use of code in cloud systems competing with HashiCorp's products and services. <\/p>\n
The creators of the OpenBao project intend to continue the development of the Hashicorp Vault fork on the neutral platform of the Linux Foundation with the involvement of a community formed from interested companies and enthusiasts, utilizing an open governance model. The fork will branch off from Hashicorp Vault version 1.14.x and will include all changes published under the MPL 2.0 license. The initiator of the fork is Sebastian Stadil, the head and founder of the DevOps company Scalr, who is also one of the creators of the OpenTofu project. Engineers from IBM, who are supporting the LF Edge project, have also joined the work on the fork. <\/p>\n
Hashicorp Vault provides tools for managing, storing, and distributing certificates, keys, API tokens, passwords, and other confidential information, as well as for organizing access to secret data, maintaining an audit log, generating passwords and tokens, encrypting data, and ensuring the revocation of compromised secrets. Hashicorp announced that it will stop releasing patches for Hashicorp Vault versions under the MPL license after December 31, 2023. <\/p>\n
The change in licensing is explained by the desire to secure funding for their developments amid the inability of traditional licensing models to counter companies that exploit existing open-source developments from HashiCorp to create their own commercial cloud products without participating in collaborative development. According to a report published a few days ago, Hashicorp's revenue for the third financial quarter, which ended on October 31, 2023, reached $146.1 million, an increase of 17% compared to the same period last year. At the same time, the company's losses decreased from $72 million to $39.5 million. <\/p>\n
Det \u00e4r v\u00e4rt att n\u00e4mna starten av betatestningen av den f\u00f6rsta versionen av OpenTofu, en fork av plattformen f\u00f6r konfiguration och automatisering av infrastruktur Hashicorp Terraform. Den f\u00f6rsta versionen av OpenTofu baseras p\u00e5 Terraform 1.6-grenen, st\u00f6der alla nuvarande funktioner och inneh\u00e5ller n\u00e5gra ytterligare korrigeringar och f\u00f6rb\u00e4ttringar som syftar till att \u00f6ka s\u00e4kerheten. Som ett alternativ till Terraform Registry har projektet \u00e4ven skapat ett register \u00f6ver alla leverant\u00f6rer och moduler som kan anv\u00e4ndas med OpenTofu. <\/p>\n
OpenTofu utvecklas under ledning av organisationen Linux Foundation med anv\u00e4ndning av den fria licensen MPLv2. Totalt 158 f\u00f6retag och 780 individuella utvecklare har meddelat sitt st\u00f6d f\u00f6r OpenTofu och sina avsikter att delta i utvecklingen av forken. De f\u00f6retag som ansl\u00f6t sig till OpenTofu-initiativen har avsatt resurser f\u00f6r att utveckla forken som motsvarar arbete av 18 ingenj\u00f6rer p\u00e5 heltid under de kommande 5 \u00e5ren (som j\u00e4mf\u00f6relse har 5 ingenj\u00f6rer under de senaste tv\u00e5 \u00e5ren hanterat Terraform inom f\u00f6retaget HashiCorp). \n K\u00e4lla: opennet.ru<\/a> <\/p>","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
