What would be the future plan here? Any hosted commercial offerings? I am asking to understand whether one could use and depend upon it for few years.

A hosted offering is not on our radar right now. Currently we want to monetize by selling seat-based licenses for larger teams.

I run a software licensing/distribution API (https://keygen.sh) that may be able to help you once your self-hosted licensing requirements expand over the next couple years. Reach out if you ever need anything or just want to talk licensing best practices.

We're going to be going source-available under ELv2 soon as well. Good to see more companies lately using the Elastic license.

Thanks, this looks useful. We will consider using keygen in the future.

It seems the future plans (short and long-term) are already outlined in the README itself.

    - Ease of deployment and management are central goals of Hocus, with minimal assumptions made about the underlying OS and hardware.
    - Hocus should provide a native development experience with performance on par with bare-metal development.
    - Hocus should be scalable to accommodate large teams, with support for thousands of users and heavyweight repositories. We're not there yet.

    Roadmap

    - Add basic single node support
    - Optimize single node storage usage, performance, and reliability
    - Add permissioning for teams, admins, and regular users
    - Add multi-node support
    - Add support for more IDEs, particularly JetBrains
