I don't follow Scala (never wrote a single line), so I didn't realize the company changed names from Typesafe to Lightbend. Here's a question: how on earth do they make any money? The Wikipedia article makes an offhand mention of something called Lightbend subscription; is that what keeps them afloat?

A lot of it is consulting, and they also have some proprietary and/or hosted services, and even akka plugins that they charge for.
