Well yet another product to fall victim to IBM's poorly integrated, poorly documented, terribly supported integrated solutions championed by ignorant marketing teams to C levels

I don't like IBM

Yep, now they own ansible and terraform. No way they'll let both exist long term and they'll likely kill both.

OpenTofu is a FOSS fork of Terraform, protected and endorsed by the Linux Foundation.

Oh christ, there goes Terraform... That really sucks.

Time to Open up some Tofu!

I hope that gets to the point where major players are able and willing to use it. I only have so much sway with my clients when it comes to tooling choice and open source options can be hard to sell to some enterprises until they hit a certain proliferation point.

was already compromised by their BS(L) license change, but this will certainly result in so much worse shit

[–] alilbee 3 points 6 months ago

Most of my clients were not impacted by that change, since it was more related to building Terraform-adjacent tooling and not so much products built with Terraform. I was not a fan, but it didn't necessarily kill it as an option for me. This though... IBM will absolutely fuck this up.

Ohh cool, just what consumers needed. More consolidation.
