My point is not to convince anyone to stop using #MariaDB - definitely do - it's absolutely awesome and #opensource. It happens to be awesome because it is owned by a Foundation that guarded it against the Company doing exactly what #Hashicorp just did. I also can't think of a reason why #Hashicorp won't enjoy similar outcomes to MariaDB Company. Hopefully, the common tools (Terraform, Vault) will get forked and maintained by a Foundation. The company is screwed.
