> Sounds like they’re open sourcing it to get some help on it. My take is that they are open sourcing it because they don't just want to use it to compete with Microsoft to host SQL Server workloads on a better basis than Microsoft's licensing policy has let them in the past, but also to just undercut Microsoft's SQL Server licensing revenue generally. As a business strategy, sure, but given the way everyone I've heard from AWS talks about Microsoft and SQL Server licensing, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a good deal of spite involved, too. |
