I wouldn't bet on that. :)

F5 isn't the most visible corporation in terms of grassroots engagement, but NGINX itself has remained F/OSS all these years and newer projects like the Kubernetes Ingress Controller [0], Gateway Fabric [1], and NGINX Agent [2] are all Apache 2.0 licensed. Just like Unit.

We do have commercial offerings, including the aforementioned NGINX Plus, but I think we've got a decent track record of keeping useful things open.

Ok, seems better than the industry then :)

I have trauma from Aerospike, Redis, and couple of others, so it may have affected my perception.

What's wrong with Redis? It is still open source, as I understand, and you can use it in non-commercial projects without any problems.

I don't the other one, but what's your gripe with redis, exactly? Can you articulate it?
